FYI, a few days ago I posted a question regarding the ISEL website and the
ipad issues of the certain parts of the page not loading or scrolling.  I
have worked through it and figured out that it is not a FLASH issue as I and
others had initially thought.  Turns out there are a few undocumented
operating proceedures on the iPad.  It simply needed "TWO" fingers to solve
the problem.

>From the web, I found this and it worked. Seems so simple now.  Wish I had
known about it a few days ago!


It seems like this is a special iPad Safari bug/feature which is not present
on all platforms.

Just found this article http://www.bobsgear.com/display/ts/iPad
+safari+annoyances (currently available via Google Cache only). Here is a
cite:

   - no vertical scroll bar within text edit boxes on safari - it is
notobvious you must use two finger scroll to scroll within the box
   - no vertical scroll bar on framed pages - again you must know the
   undocumented two finger scroll to scroll them

The two-finger scrolling is also stated here:

I will try with an iPad the next time I can get access to one. Any other
iPad users around?

So there seems to be a workaround. However, I wonder if there is another way
without leaving the user to recognize that such a workaround has to be used.
