There has been a lot of steam ( *&^! ) about early versions of iPad web browser not being able to edit posts. Seems that updates to the affected web browsers solved the issues. So, I assume some common issue affecting other mobile devices.While I'm at it I was trying to post this same question from my blackberry using Opera to connect to this website.
I can only suggest you try a different browser or wait for an update.
