Browser Compatability Problems

Subject: Browser Compatability Problems Sun Jul 06, 2008 9:26 pm

Ok, I have recently found that two Internet browsers have difficulty accessing and displaying this forum. IE 7.0 looks fine and works ok but is very slow and crashes more than others.

Firefox 3.0 is excellent and quick at loading pages, I would recommend it to everybody. However I had a recent Trojan virus problem that infected this browser with adware infecting all the pages I visited most. Even after reformatting the PC and re-installing the browser it still has problems that I am currently sorting out.

Safari is an excellent browser that is faster than Firefox, looks better, is more user friendly in most situations but seems to have difficulty displaying this forum and its associated CSS script. I am not sure why, and am in the process of seeing what can be done to sort this out. The problem is only apparent when replying to a post using Safari you can not see what you are typing unless you select and highlight the text. Also the tools such as font size, colour, links, image hosting buttons are simply not there!

Opera is the last browser I have tried. It is very slow at loading pages, infact it didn't load the last page and even after refeshing several times still failed. See below image.

I have added some screen dumps below:

Safari - Displaying the Homepage

Safari - Having to select and highlight the text whilst trying to reply..notice the missing tools above.

Firefox - Displaying adware after infection on the hompage.

Firefox - Posting a reply in the forum (not a problem)

Opera - Took 22 seconds to load the hompage

Opera - Failed to fully load this page after several attempts

Hi guys

I am trying to find out why safari doesn´t work on our homepage , i have requested help on the support forum from our homepage , but i´m afraid i have had no answer yet .

I will keep trying to get this problem solved , because i think that safari is a very good browser.

I must agree with you there maxthon is not bad , i downloaded it as well and gave it a try and it´s not bad at all , it´s about as fast as firefox.

Was a good tip.
