Steps to reproduce:

2. Go to “Newsletter” section and click the “Sign me up“ green button

Expected results:
There are no display or layout issues.

Actual results:
The message “Please fill out this field.“ is displayed above of the search field.

The message appears every time the search magnifier is tapped. The issue is reproduced only if the user forgets to check a mandatory checkbox (like the one from the newsletter section).

I think this is the default Android HTML5 form validation error. I guess we should disable the default and write our own validation. Seems like a platform bug to me though.
