It's very flaky in IE, doesn't work at all in Safari - anybody had any luck? If not my brother will be buying a PC...

Camino works from a different engine, so maybe try that. Otherwise, don't change browser, change supermarket. sainsburystoyou.co.uk works fine on a Mac. Better than ASDA too.

Camino doesn't work, and though Omniweb looks promising, ultimately the shopping options don't appear.

For our USA readers, ASDA is the UK arm of WalMart.

Thanks for that. Tragically it looks like my brother will be getting a PC...

Well my brother bought a hideous Acer laptop. And I've just worked out how to use Asda online on the Mac - oops! Using Safari Enhancer I added the Debug menu to Safari, then I just chose to mimic IE6 and Asda works fine. Might be useful for any UK people on here.

E-mail them and tell them that they're fscking idiots for doing user-agent based checks that don't actually work.
