Mobile Browser Refreshing Web page

Hello

Can anyone give me some guidance and assistance to resolve an issue on my Website.

My website is www.stroudskittles.co.uk and I have a number of forms on the site; these work fine on a PC or Laptop.

The problem I'm having is on Mobile Browsers on phones or Tablets; I can load the form however when I select the Textbox the page refreshes and I lose all the selected information.

Is there a script that can fix this so the page does not refresh

an example page is www.stroudskittles.co.uk/contactus.php

Any advice would be appreciated

Many Thanks

Hi there,
Without having to take a look at the page, I can tell you exactly why your input fields are being cleared. You are not storing that data locally, so when a user refreshes the page, the data will not be there. I suggest you save off your data temporarily in a variable called "sessionStorage" when a field gets populated, and at load time, check to see if there's any data in sessionStorage, if so, then you populate the fields

Can you offer some advice how I can achieve this on a mobile browser. I'm not really an expert at writing websites and need some assistance, due to other priorities i haven't been able to look at it
