I do not believe that this is an issue with the in-app-browser.

Cordova doesn't implement browser features, and HTMLCollection / document.querySelectorAll is a browser feature implemented by the webview.

HTMLCollection is a "live" object which means it can change, it's reflective of the DOM state, so if the DOM state changes, so will the HTMLCollection object. It is weird that it appears to change within script execution though. By the time it reaches console.log('this is the lengthnya', elements.length);, it shows that the collection is empty, so naturally elements.item(0) would return null.

Are you sure that the DOM nodes isn't being manipulated and your .text-area nodes aren't being removed from the DOM?
