Safari Address bar unresponsive

Ok, so I got an iPod touch about a week ago (32gb, latest firmware).. everything runs fine. Safari runs fine too, except for one issue - the address bar at the top is totally unresponsive and useless. I can't enter in an address, I can't refresh, I can't use that search bar. If I want to go to any website, I have to go to bookmarks, Google, then google the site, and go thru it that way.

This whole area: does absolutely nothing (except if I tap it, it will scroll to the top of the page).

Help? I seem to remember it worked ONCE, but I don't know how I did it and I haven't been able to do it since.


edit: Also, I can't rotate the screen by turning it on its side, but I'm not sure if this is something you should be able to do or not.

 

This seems to have fixed itself.. after Safari crashed.
