How to setup AutoFill as a web developer for IPAD (html)

Hey all,
This is my 1st post on Apple's Forums. Not sure if i can get web-develment info here on Safari but gonna try.
So I trying to get AutoFill working as a Web Developer across different browser platforms for a contact form webpage.
We are esp interesting about mobile to make it easier to fill out hte long contact page on mobile phones which would improve our website's success.
I got IPHONE AutoFill working on a simple HTML contact form.
But on the same webpage form, IPAD I'm having a heck of a time trying to get the AutoFill working.
My User Agent is:
Mozilla/5.0 (Ipad: CPU OS 7_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/537.51.2 (KTHML... Like Gecko) Version/7.0 Mobile/11D201 Safari/9537.53
Here are all the bases I cover for Safari and other browsers:
1. Some use regex on the input name attr. so like an attribute of <input name="firstname"/> or fname,etc helps some browsers figure out the context for AutoFill.
2. Chrome uses a nice context attribute 'autocompletetype="given-name" so dont need to depend on the browser to figure it out via Regexes. also threw on x-autocompletetype maybe if some browsers are viewing it as experimental and decide to implement it as an 'experimental' attribute. This works well for Chrome/Desktop browser.
3. Also added Placeholder text as some places recommended it.
4. The label's text is also named nice if some browsers do a regex on the label text to provide context <label for="firstname">First Name</label> <input id="firstname" name="firstname" /> (dont know of any specific browsers that do this... just saying, all bases are covered)
Here is my super basic form that covers all of those:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36600570/html-autofillform-test/index.html
Yet on the IPAD, I don't see the Autofill button on the keyboard when I click on the 'First Name' input like how IPHONE has it (and yes Autofill is turned on in the Settings->Safari->Passwords&Autofill area, and right below that 'on' setting, I picked my contact to associate AutoFill in which has my name/address/phone/email info).
Why does Ipad-Safari not AutoFill like its supposed to. Do others get that AutoFill button on their IPAD testing the website above and if so, what version are you using (can get version by going to http://www.whatsmyuseragent.com/)
Thanks for any advice!,
Ari

Don't think there's an automatic way to do this, but if you tap the top right corner of your screen it should take you straight to connectivity and you can disconnect wifi there ? Also why do you want to disconnect from the web, is it to save battery or data charges ? A 'smartphone' is of little use without a data package !
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

  • How to Setup Flash Builder ActionScript only project for iPad?

    Hello!
    Can someone give a short guide on how to setup an ActionScript only prject in flash builder such that it can be compiled using adt and deployed to the iPad?
    i created successfully iphone games using FlashIDE and PFI.
    now I'd like to create an iPad app using Flash Builder (ActionScript only). but I fail to load the compiled IPA to the ipad, keep getting different errormessages thus i think something with my projectsetup is wrong

    Yes, in Terminal you type a single line which is made from the path to the adt application, some parameters, and paths to other documents. Here's the full list of things:
    /Location/to/AdobeAIRSDK_2.6/bin/adt
    -package
    -target ipa-test
    -provisioning-profile /Location/to/Provision.mobileprovision
    -storetype pkcs12
    -keystore /Location/to/Certificates.p12
    -storepass password
    NameOfApp.ipa ApplicationDescriptor-app.xml
    -C /Location/to/swf  NameOfApp.swf
    splashscreens
    icons
    That "-C" line is clever, it does a directory change to the folder you give it, so after the -C /location/to/swf part it will then look in that same folder for other documents, and for where to build the IPA file.

  • Need web developer for Firefox 8

    I have Firefox 8.0.1 and really need the 'web devloper' addon. when trying to download it, it says it isn't for Firefox 8.0.1.
    Is there an updated 'web developer' for vs 8.0.1?
    If I uninstall vs 8.0.1 and download an older version, will I lose my bookmarks, etc?
    Thank you,

    Checking for updates doesn't seem to be working at this moment.<br />
    I did some testing and I do not see a response.
    You can download the extension and edit the file install.rdf in the XPI file (ZIP archive) and change the maxVersion to 9.0 or more.

  • How do I add multiple rows in Numbers for iPad?

    how do I add multiple rows in Numbers for iPad?

    Hi James,
    On the iPod I can only insert what is on the clipboard but I can insert however many rows I have there. Is it working differently for you? Benjoon seemed to think that he could not do this in Numbers. He was ruling Numbers out because of it. He doesn't need to do that because of this issue.
    If I was needing to insert multiple blank rows often I might keep a table of blank rows or just some blank rows at the end of the working table that I could copy/paste. This is no different than Numbers on the Mac.

  • What is the best web browser for iPad 2

    What is the best web browser for iPad 2?

    I have Mercury, Atomic, Dolphin and iCab. They all offer features that Safari does not have. If you liked the former mini windows view that Safari had in iOS 4, I think iCab would be a great choice. It offers something similar to that as well as tabbed browsing, DropBox support, it can identify as other browsers (I can't remember what that feature is called) and IMO - it blows Safari out of the water.
    All of these browsers have more to offer than Safari, but I like iCab the best.
