Description

I've got a dynamic search entry something like this in my index.html:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
<script>
function dosearch(txt) {
// blah
console.log("IAmSearching is true.");
// lots of stuff
console.log("IAmSearching is false.");
}
</script>

<input id="junk" onkeyup="dosearch(this.value);">
-------------------------------------------------------------------

On a Nexus 7 (Jelly Bean 4.1.1), dosearch is only being called when I press <return> with the input active.

Now, on 4.0.4 (Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10), dosearch is being called for every keystroke, as intended.

Note that in the logcats, on Samsung, the webview itself seems to be handling the onkeyup without cordova getting a look in. On the Nexus, it's the opposite.

Here's a comparison of the relevant bit of the logcats:

Can anyone tell me why Cordova 2.0 has a problem with keyup events on 4.1.1?
