Description

Hi there,

I noticed a problem concerning crosstalk filter_select in combination with flexdashboards using an android device. Every time I try to set the filter, the whole page reloads and the filter is reset to default. However, using crosstalk without flexdashborad the issue doesn't appear.

Any idea?

See for example:

with flexdashboard: https://matt-dray.github.io/earl18-crosstalk/04_leaflet-flexdash-dt-crosstalk.html
without flexdashboard: https://www.geo-statistik.it.nrw/Chart/2021/Handwerkszaehlung/Handwerkszaehlung.html

Research direction

Reproduce the filter_select() behavior on an Android device using the linked flexdashboard and compare it with the non-flexdashboard example. Trace why selecting the filter reloads the page and resets the filter, then verify that the filter remains applied without a reload.
