IE9 Backspace bug

[zdam]

I'm seeing an issue in IE9

http://jsfiddle.net/cCDZ2/

Type some text into the textbox, then backspace or delete - the model is not being updated.

I have had a look into this, function textInputType binds the listener function to the input event or the keydown event, depending on whether the $sniffer finds the input event.

My naive solution is to detect IE9 and bind to keydown if found:

var isIE9 = function() {
return XDomainRequest && window.performance;
}

// if the browser does support "input" event (and is not IE9), we are fine
if ($sniffer.hasEvent('input') && !isIE9()) {
element.bind('input', listener);
} else {
...
}

Did you already have plans as to how you would tackle this bug?

this is lame. IE9 should support the input event, but apparently their implementation is quite weird. we'll look into this next week.

I am still seeing this issue. Though the problem is more specific than what was earlier.. As a general note it seems to have been fixed but there is probably a remote case which is causing this to still happen! I am attempting to create an isolated case which will reproduce the bug in a sane level of consistency. But this bug is probably not solved completely!

please open a new issue if you can reproduce it
