Problems typing on iPhone & iPad

[Count-A-Strong]

I know you are aware of this Ed. Any date for a fix. It's extremely annoying when the keyboRd disappears and you hit a link to another site.

Dear CAS,

Yes,we've looked into a little bit but found no answers.... Question: do the adverts on the site keep reloading? Does this coincide with your keyboard disappearing?

I've just tried on a maemo & Android device and they both seem to work - so it may be a Safari issue. I will do some more testing this week and see what I can find.

For the time being, can you do a test for me please: could you download Opera Mobile from the App Store (it's free, don't worry!) and see if that works for The AnswerBank? Do you encounter the same problems?

Any further information you can supply would be great.

All the best,

Spare

Hi there. We've just found the problem. It does seem to be the ads reloading which shuts down the iPad keyboard. We're looking for ways to fix this soon.

All the best,

Spare

Dear Gromit.

I know, we've been slow. This is more a "way the adverts are served" issue, rather than a particular advert (if it was we'd kill it immediately!)

Not sure about when this will be fixed, but it will!

[AB Editor]

Ok, We think we've fixed it. Could you please test and see if the same problem arises?

[Count-A-Strong]

Sorry Ed I've been a bit busy. Many thanks for your attention to this problette and yes you seem to have fixed it! What a team you are, have a chocolate Hob Nob on me ;-)

Ok, I'll have a go too - yeah, seems to be working again now. Excellent! Thanks
