After IOS 8 update, bookmark bar won't go away

After upgrading to IOS 8 on my iPad 2, in landscape mode in Safari, the bookmarks bar, now combined with links and "Reading List", won't go away. I believe it is supposed to go away when you select one of the functions, such as bookmark, so that the tab turns blue, then hit it again. It doesn't. I can turn it to portrait mode to make it go away, but I'd like to use landscape mode without losing a third of the screen to bookmarks.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Hi nofixedadress. You hide the side bookmarks by tapping the upper bookmark icon, next to the address bar. It is annoying that it doesn't disappear automatically after selecting an item, but that's how it works. If that doesn't help, please describe your exact problem, what you're trying to do and how it fails. Please include your device model and iOS version.
