Apple TV won't allow me to enter my login information

I obviously know my ID and password. I logged in with them right here. My problem is Apple won't give the chance to enter them. Any time I click on the field, the field is immediately replaced with a hyperlink to reset my password. Again, I clearly know my password as I've just used it to post this problem.
