Description Maggie Dennis 2013-07-04 22:48:27 UTC
Copied from English Wikipedia:

When I try to use VisualEditor on my Kindle Fire, the article goes into edit mode, but clicking in the article doesn't bring up the keyboard like it does on an iPad. I'm presuming that aading support for the Kindle Fire's Amazon Silk browser isn't on your to do list now. Could you please add this browser to the blacklist? I would like to keep VE on in my preferences so it works when I'm on my PC but not have VE get in the way while on the Kindle. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 02:59, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Note that I've got a first-gen Kindle Fire in my collection at the office, if it needs testing. I don't have the newer generations (Android 4-based) though.

I found emulator images for the 2nd-gen Kindle Fires and HDs, but they don't include the browser.

Mostly we just want to verify that any blacklisting we put in jquery.client based on UA string actually works. :-)

Well, here's the sample UA strings, plop those in your tests. :)

That redirects me to another page without a user agent section...
