input type=number keyboard has dot disabled in Galaxy Tab
I know that there are many questions about that isssue already responded, but none of the solutions given has worked for me.
I'm developing a web for an enterprise that's using Samsung Galaxy Tab. There are lots of inputs which contents are decimal numbers. So I tried with <input type="number" />. But the navigator displays a keyboard with dot and comma disabled. Not only this, but onfocus, dot or comma separators are removed from the value.
I have already tried setting a step like "0,1", "0,01", "0.1", "0.01", "any", etc, tried min, max, pattern with a regex that matches decimal numbers... There are no advices in stackoverflow left to try, and this is terrible haha.
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 with default browser, but I haven't found any document talking about any limitation of it's html5 implementation. So nowadays I don't know if there is something I am missing, if there is something I can try, or if something knows that is Galaxy Tab's fault so I can do nothing for this.
Lots of thanks in advance.

In android namespace you can use:
android:inputType="numberDecimal"
Which enables you to input the "."
