Popup menu sometimes closes when it shouldn't (in mobile browsers)

When swiped up or down to scroll through menu items, the flexMenu popup sometimes closes instead. Needless to say, this is unwanted behaviour and bad UX.
I guess this has something to do with viewport height (whenever viewport size changes, the popup menu closes?).
For example, in Chrome and Firefox (for Android), the browser address bar is shown when you swipe up and hidden when you swipe down. Whenever that happens, the flexMenu popup closes.
This also happens on the flexMenu demo page (http://352media.github.io/flexMenu/).
Here's a video demonstrating this:

I forgot to say hello and thanks for the otherwise handy plugin. (:

Thanks for answering quickly.
I'm already using the latest plugin version (1.4.2).
As the video demonstrates (https://goo.gl/Fl1Yp4), the plugin demo page (using the latest plugin version) also has this issue.

Got it. I can reproduce the issue. I'll take a closer look.

Hi, rdebeasi,
just remembered this issue. Have you had time to look into this?

I haven't had a chance to look into this yet. Sorry for the delay!

I maintain this project in my spare time, and spare time has been in short supply for me lately. In the meantime, if you'd like to take a crack at a fix, I happily accept pull requests! 😄
