Can't use edit forms on some web pages

Question

I have been using my iPad on forums (like this one) and find some where the iPad can't be used. For instance, if I try to edit an bay page, I can't set the cursor insert point. Also when I click an data entry field, the keyboard doesn't pop up.
I have seen this behavior on a couple of forums.
This appears to be a problem in the iPad or safari. I have no problems on any of these web sites using any other computer.
Any ideas?

Thanks but it didn't fix the problem.
I still can't edit on some pages. I tried to edit my first post on this forum and it works ok. But if I go to eBay and try to edit an auction description, the keyboard won't pop up, when I click the edit field. I can edit the same field with my PC but not from the iPad.
I can edit single line fields but not multiple-line fields (like this post) on some sites. When I touch, tap, hold or make any contact with those fields, the iPad will only select. It won't go into edit insert mode.
Another equally problematic problem, that even happens on this forum, on fields I can edit, is that there is no way scroll or move to a different part of large idiot fields. All I can work with are the first 10 lines. I have found a workaround but it is very tedious.
I have seen this behavior on other forums too. Only my iPad has this problem.
Simple test for someone who uses ebay. Go see if you can edit an auction description. I can't.
Another test. Try to edit a post content on this forum. If the post is longer than 10 lines, can you position the cursor at the end? These multiple-line fields won't scroll.
