I’m only having this issue on some occasions, but if I’m experiencing it, then I know that users are as well and that’s not going to fly with the client.
My search fields consist of “Enter Keyword or Name,” “Enter city, state, zip code or country,” and “Select category,” which is a dropdown. When clicking on the first two options, no flashing cursor will appear at all so the user has no indication that the field is available for them to input their search parameters.
When I try to diagnose the problem using developer tools, simply activating developer tools frees up the field and then the problem goes away. If I reopen the page in incognito mode on Chrome, I can recreate the problem each and every time. Other than that, the issue seems to occur unpredictably.
Firefox seems to be the one browser that doesn’t create this problem at all. Chrome and Safari, not so much.
If anyone wants to see this firsthand so they can weigh in, they can visit the page at https://iabdm.org/location/.
Thank you.
