title: iPhone Mobile Safari: Force keyboard open
body: <p>This is an HTML / CSS / JS (jQuery) iPad app. I've got a button, that slides down an input form. I'd like to focus the user on the input, and then launch the keyboard. </p>
  
  <p>This is what I'm working with, but doesn't work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#myFormField').focus();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This does indeed focus the input, but fails to launch the keyboard. Is it just not possible (for security reasons or whatever)?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to force or simulate a user tapping the input (or anything for that matter)?</p>
