Apologies for delayed response. Was kind of heads down with the Dreamforce prep and polymer demos, which were just awesome!
Coming back to the preventDefault problem, I was able to create a simple sample that shows the issue. Try this link on Chrome on iOS: http://jsbin.com/mogusutono Source: http://jsbin.com/mogusutono/edit?html When you click the button, the view navigates to next page with the paper-input element. And on the next page, paper-input automatically receives a focus event and and keyboard pops up. Not ideal. I am able to work-around this by listening for touch-end event after the tap and then calling event.preventDefault. Would be better if tap event could handle this automatically for me. This also seems to only happen inside the UIWebView and not the iOS Safari. Let me know if you guys need more details. Hope this helps!
