The touch panel () includes: a touch panel substrate (), a plurality of Y-direction electrodes () provided on the touch panel substrate (); a plurality of lines () electrically connected with the Y-direction electrodes (); and a floating electrode () located within a predetermined distance from at least one of the lines () and another line adjacent the at least one line such that noise produced in the at least one line can be propagated to reach the other line.
