1. Open user's attached "InputFieldTestProject.zip" project
2. Go to File -> Build Settings
3. Make sure the platform is set to WebGL

    This marked as fixed, but it is only marked for 2020.

    2019.4.29F1 is still having the issue!

    How do we raise the issue for 2019?

    I tried this in Unity 2020.3.3f1 and 2020.2.f1 but input is still not working on input fields in a WebGL build. Am I doing something wrong?

    Just ran into this problem when updating to the new input system. It looks like the fix is in 2020.2, why not have it in an updated 2020.1.x?

    Had this issue as well. Using Unity 2020.1, Input System 1.0.0

    Found a temporal solution here: https://forum.unity.com/threads/textmeshpro-input-field-new-input-system-webgl-no-work.926396/

    Edit -> Project settings -> Player -> WebGL Settings -> Other Setting -> Active Input Handling and setting that option to "Both" instead of "Input System Package (New)

    Same issue here.
    Using Unity 2020.1, Input System version 1.0.0 and TextMesh Pro 3.0.1.
    Tested with scenes that had nothing but a TextMeshPro Input Field and the normal Input Field. Neither worked.

    I am having the same issue where characters are not displaying in the input fields for my WebGL builds. Both the standard and Text Mesh Pro input fields are affected, but they work fine in the editor.

    Versions:
    Unity 2020.1.2f1
    Input System 1.0.0
    Text Mesh Pro 3.0.1

    I just installed the latest Unity 2019 and made sure all the packages were up to date and the problem still exists.

    Versions:
    Unity 2019.4.6f1
    "com.unity.textmeshpro": "2.1.1",
    "com.unity.inputsystem": "1.0.0",

    I have the same issue, and the issue @ROBSCHERER123 mentioned with the mouse scroll wheel scrolling really really slow.

    I added:
    #if UNITY_WEBGL && !UNITY_EDITOR
    zoom *= 100f;
    #endif
    to my code to work around the scroll issue for now, but I have not found a workaround for the Input Fields not working. I did notice that arrow and Home/End keys move the cursor around, but nothing seems to happen when typing letters or numbers (even from the numpad).
