I made a little webtool for my family to manage our shopping list.

To add new items to the shopping list I use an input field with a datalist.

the datalist is populated from the already used items from a database.

So if you type the first letters in the input field, the browser shows the matching entries, so i can choose easily from the list.

Works like a charm until the new firefox for android V79.0.5.

If I type letters in the input field, nothing happens.

Works flawless in Firefox Desktop Linux (V79.0), older version of Firefox Android, Chrome for Android (V84.0.4147.125).

Is this a bug in the new firefox?

Here to test and to view source code: https://cpunke.de/input_test.php

Thanks for any help in advance.
