Prior to the last two updates to the forums (Analysis Services in particular) I could type responses etc. in the "rich text" box for a question's body but can no longer do so. I now have to type in the HTML box after a bit of a phaff to get that to work. To repro, grab an iPhone with OS4, login using Safari and try posting a question. The result looks like this post. Can this be fixed please? I know it's Apple lol, but in the interests of interconnectivity etc? :-)

Actually this is a problem with the telerik editor. We're not sure whether this will first be fixed by telerik or whether we'll make serverside change to simply offer iphone/ipad users a plain edit text box (likely). No eta for this.

The Forums still do not yet support iPhone or iPad. We made numerous attempts to fix this and found that the Telerik editor we're using (http://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-ajax/editor.aspx ) doesn't support it. However, they are planning fixes.

Thanks!
