I follow a forum on RC models. On my laptop I can have 20 odd posts but only 12 or so show on the iPad with no particular pattern for the missing posts. Any reason why?
The iPad identifies itself as a 'mobile' device when using Safari. Some websites can behave strangely if they have not been optimised for such a device. I sometimes use another browser, iCab, which has the option to 'pretend' it's a normal PC browser and that gets rid of the problem.
There are other browsers too that can do this but Safari, unfortunately, cannot.
