Solution

  • You need to assign your scrollable instance to a variable:

    var yourScrollable = $(".yourScrollableClass").eq(1).data("scrollable");
    

    And then disable the keyboard navigation (in your case, on focus on a text input):

    $('.inputClass').focus(function() { yourScrollable.getConf().keyboard=false; });
    

    Then you can set this back to true on blur of your text input.

    $('.inputClass').blur(function() { yourScrollable.getConf().keyboard=true; });
