iPhone/iPad "New Entry" form
The current entry form doesn't work from iPhone/iPad.

You might be able to detect the browser and show a simpler form, even if we cannot use formatting in these texts.

Apple portable devices do not support rich text-editing features. We detect the iPhone and switch the editing back to plain-text, but we do not detect iPad yet. As a workaround you can switch to plain-text editing in the user preferences.

Just to clarify: even if the user has selected Rich Text editing in the preferences, we are trying to check whether the browser actually supports it. Mobile Safari claims to support it, but does not bring up the keyboard to edit the content. Previously the code was checking for iPhone only, now the check is extended to handle iPhone, iPod and iPad.

I confirm it works from the iPad, thanks!
