Responsive simulator in browser dev tools vs smartphone browser

[ids]

I have a script that configures a jquery/jquery-ui plugin that pops up a screen.. When viewing the page in responsive mode in dev tools the plug in works as expected. When looking at the page on my iPhone 7 using Safari and/or Chrome the plugin doesn't appear to work.

There are no console errors in dev tools and unable to see any on the iPhone. I'm looking for ideas to troubleshoot.

Thanks,

Scott

More pieces aren't working. Not just the plugin. This is a customized Shadows theme. The hamburger menu on my iPhone is also not working. But this is somewhat intermittent and I haven't seen what that pattern is yet. Just looking for a way to troubleshoot. The menu part doesn't use modals or popups, but I've made sure that Safari isn't blocking popups.

as you might know, phone emulators are 'just a suggestion of appearance' since, if on a PC, they are not running IOS. So, look for where the JS/jquery interacts with the IOS.

(Ever since my MacPro died I've been tempted to buy a cheap mac, just to run their App Development tool which has a perfect iPhone / device emulator.)

and, i think we've seen this before on a site we worked on together...think it was the clocks site. (if that's a help at all--you are the one that fixed it regardless :) )

I fixed it? Good to know. I must have moved the JQuery load around. That would explain the hamburger menu not working on that page.

Thanks,
