Hi is it possible to download ebooks straight from this site to the iPad,or is it more complicated than that,

[Spectrum2025]

If you use safari browser and if the link is to a epub or pdf you can download and open it in iBooks.
I do it all the time. But it is is rar file, it won't, and I don't know how to deal with zipped files.

You need an app to open rar or zip files. I use iZip (the free version). It will allow you to extract the files and read them in the Kindle app (mobi format), iBooks app, Nook app or Kobo app (ePub format).

Let me know if you have any more questions.

I use Izip free for unzipping my files. Call me lazy but I hate using the middle man (my laptop) just to read an ebooks.

Great, I posted a few days ago this very question in another section and there were no takers Figured it out on my own though, and works great with iZip and iBooks.
