jquery function in wordpress not loading in mobile

Question

I'm using this jquery script to filter content from a html table. http://jsfiddle.net/7BUmG/2/ The search bar works great when I type on the keyboard on desktop and mobile using the touchscreen.

I tried to load the same script in a wordpress page but it was not working. so I tried to wrap the code in this function

(function($) {

})(jQuery);

I think this is a method used for compatibility with wordpress jquery library. It works fine in desktop but now the keyup event does not work on mobile.

WordPress dont't understand $ as jQuery and you have to make some modifications to fix this error. You can try wrap:

jQuery(function($){
    // your code jquery here
}); 

or

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    // your code jquery here
});
