Radio buttons in 'Block Style' functioning perfectly on all devices except for iPad

I am facing an issue with a group of radio buttons that I have styled to display as block elements, making them look like buttons while hiding the actual radio button itself. This setup works perfectly on Chrome and Firefox on desktops and Android tablets, but for some reason, it fails to work on iPads.

You can see the problem here: http://jsfiddle.net/WhNRK/

On iPads, the block element does not activate when clicked, failing to set the radio button as expected. However, if I unhide the radio button, clicking on it directly selects it and even changes the background color of the block element. http://jsfiddle.net/WhNRK/1/

I'm puzzled as to what could be causing this issue. It seems like a basic functionality, so I must be missing something simple. The website where this is implemented is mainly for mobile devices, so it's essential to have it working on all iOS devices (I suspect it might occur on iPhones as well, but I don't have one to test currently).

If you have any suggestions or ideas to help resolve this, I would greatly appreciate it!

Answer №1

Initially, the fiddle you provided doesn't function properly on iPhones, both in Safari and Chrome.

Intrigued by this issue, I decided to experiment with your code by adjusting the HTML so that the label became a sibling of the input instead of a parent. However, this change did not have any effect on my iPhone.

After conducting some research, I came across a solution in this forum thread: . I applied the suggested fix, which surprisingly resolved the problem, although I'm unsure why. It seems to be some kind of bug...

The key is to add onclick="" to your labels.

I haven't tested this on an iPad yet, but since it essentially functions like a larger iPhone, it should yield the same results. You can view a functional demonstration here: http://jsfiddle.net/WhNRK/15/
