Swiper: Clicking on Links is sometimes prevented in Chrome on Windows

Created on 28 Dec 2015 · 8Comments · Source: nolimits4web/swiper

I am opening this page in chrome:
http://www.idangero.us/swiper/

Clicking on the links, e.g. API does not trigger anything.

Opening the same page in a new window and clicking again opens the API page.
To me it looks like the problem is in these lines, if I comment out the setTimeout everything works fine.

            setTimeout(function () {
                if (s) s.allowClick = true;
            }, 0);

I have no explanation why this issue occurs only sometimes but if it occurs, it occurs in every tab. Only opening a new window changes the behaviour.

Maybe someone can have a look on this - I am watching this over 4 month so this should be a major problem for everyone using this slider in production.

Any news about this topic? I would say Chrome+Windows is a pretty common combination...

@nolimits4web do we have any idea what is causing it or some form of work around? Happy to help if we have direction from any existing investigation.

Cheers,
