Just check this page: (ok - not too important)

http://www.pikipimp.com/

Simply doesn't work in Safari - and I was trying to figure out how the page works...and found myself trying in Mozilla and Firefox - with these browsers it worked flawless. What I really hate in such cases in Safari that I sometimes do not realize that there is actually a problem in Safari and not at the page I browse.
Is this specific page coded so badly that Safari must fail??

cheers - John

Works in my Safari ( OS 10.4.8) But why you are having grief, I dunno.

Perhaps clearing your Safari cache will help...

The beards all appear on the right? I can't get it to appear with Safari, but the WebKit nightlies get it right.

Thats what I meant pendragon. One even doesn't realize that it isn't workin. Try with Mozilla or Firefox....

There are no beards on the right, nor the picture appears after uploading...

There is an option in the Safari menu called "Report Bugs to Apple." You are prob better off taking advantage of that resource than posting to this forum.

I have a similar problem when trying to view Eurosport's TV schedule. Doesn't work with Safari, works just fine with Firefox.

The sooner Leopard hits the streets, the better. Apple seems unwilling to move all changes they've made to WebKit in the past 2 years into Safari 2.x.

Safari 3.0 will be awesome judging by the latest WebKit nightlies.

Not the Eurosport site. I've tried the latest Webkit.
