title: React Native WebView html <select> not opening options on Android tablets
body: <p>I am experiencing a very strange problem in React Native's WebView with HTML <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> tags on Android tablets.</p>
  
  <p><strong>For some reason, tapping on the rendered <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> button does not open the options list.</strong></p>
  
  <p>This only happens on Android tablets, irrespective of the Android version. On Android smartphones, however, this bug does not occur and the options list opens as expected.</p>
  
  <p>To reproduce this bug, I created a simple demo app: <a href="https://github.com/huonderv/react-native-webview-html-select-bug" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/huonderv/react-native-webview-html-select-bug</a>.</p>
  
  <p>The important code is the following:</p>
  
  <p><strong>index.android.js</strong></p>
  
  <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>import React, { Component } from 'react';
  import {
    AppRegistry,
    StyleSheet,
    Text,
    View,
    WebView
  } from 'react-native';
  
  export default class WebViewProject extends Component {
    render() {
      return (
        &lt;WebView
          style={styles.container}
          source={{ uri: 'file:///android_asset/simpleselect.html'}}
          startInLoadingState={true}
        /&gt;
      );
    }
  }
  
  const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
      flex: 1,
    },
  });
  
  AppRegistry.registerComponent('WebViewProject', () =&gt; WebViewProject);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>simpleselect.html</strong></p>
  
  <pre class="lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
  &lt;html&gt;
    &lt;body&gt;    
      &lt;select&gt;
        &lt;option value="volvo"&gt;Volvo&lt;/option&gt;
        &lt;option value="saab"&gt;Saab&lt;/option&gt;
        &lt;option value="opel"&gt;Opel&lt;/option&gt;
        &lt;option value="audi"&gt;Audi&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;/select&gt;
  
    &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I also tried to replace the WebView with Crosswalk, as described here: <a href="https://github.com/grovertb/react-native-crosswalk-webview" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/grovertb/react-native-crosswalk-webview</a>. However, this did not solve this problem.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know how to get this to work in React Native WebView on Android tablets?</p>
