Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1- GT -N8010 Android 4.1.2 On some sites, clicking a link takes you to the sites default page or brings up a login page eg, Try http://www.bbc.co.uk/news click on Scotland and it goes to bbc sign in page ! Other sites take you to the default page, no matter what link you select. If ones bookmarked link takes you to a login page then clicking a login box will not brink up the keyboard. Only way to get keyboard is to hit login button. Behaviour is really weird and difficult to summarize. Everything worked fine prior to this new release.

Seems to me thats its a pointer position miscalculation. Sometimes hitting about 1inch below the link may work. - now reported by several people. But it depends on how the link has been written/formed in html as the problem does not happen with all types of links.
