When I try to login to some sites the soft keyboard either doesn't appear or disappears before login completed. Android KitKat 4.42 tablet. No other current problems. Keyboard comes up fine in apps and for search in firefox..it's just the logins that fail. I ordered a bluetooth external keyboard today...but still would like be able to activate the soft keyboard for logins. Thanks for any help/insights you care to provide.

Hi Mr Toad, Thank you for your question, I understand that there are some login pages where the keyboad does not activate. This sounds really annoying. However if you long tap and remove some of the auto complete entries you may be able to speed it up.
