Exclusive bug discovery: figcaption mysteriously disappearing in Safari browser

Having a CSS dilemma on my personal portfolio website that has me stumped. I’ve been using the and tags to switch from an image to a caption/button upon desktop hover or mobile click. It's working smoothly on all browsers except for Safari iOS.

When I try to interact with the images on my iPhone, they don’t respond initially. However, if I hold down on them, I’m able to select invisible caption text that seems to be there. This issue only occurs on Safari iOS; other mobile browsers seem unaffected.

Check out the “Projects” section of this page here on Safari iOS to see if you encounter the same bug.

You can find the problematic lines of code in this HTML file and this CSS file.

I utilized the Bulma CSS framework for this site, and have made various manual CSS changes in attempts to fix the problem without success. Any suggestions?

Answer №1

The issue lies within the .overlay element nested inside the figure. Because it covers the entire width and height of its parent, it is intercepting clicks (taps) on mobile devices and preventing the figcaption from appearing.

An alternative solution to resolving this issue without using JavaScript (the ideal scenario) is to assign a tabindex="0" to the figure element.

<figure class="image is-3by2" tabindex="0">

By including a tabindex, it enables the element to respond to the :focus pseudo-class, thus eliminating the overlay effect when the figure is interacted with.

.image.is-3by2:focus .overlay {
  display: none;
}
