             Summary: iOS next/prev buttons don't fire key(press/up/down) events
                 Key: CB-11201
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11201
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: CordovaJS
    Affects Versions: 6.1.1
         Environment: iOS 9.3.1
            Reporter: cjardmore
            Priority: Minor


I don't know if this is an upstream issue w/ iOS.

Within a cordova app, pressing the next/prev keys on the iOS virtual keyboard 
do not propagate a key(up/down/press) event into the app.

The prev/next keys (as far as I know) are useful to toggle from one input field 
to the next (when filling out a form).  Using any sophisticated framework (such 
as angular material) in some cases does not use native html form elements.  
These elements do not get detected by iOS when the user presses next/prev 
buttons.  So ideally the key event will fire so I can handle how the form 
fields are traversed by the next/prev buttons.

Since this event is not firing I have no option (to the best of my 
understanding) except to gracefully degrade from angular material components to 
native HTML components, and attempt to style them similarly to how the angular 
components are styled.
