New Safari 5.1.4 made my website javascript time counters frozen and not working. I am using jQuery library on my site.
You can see the preview of the problemhere: [URL]
What is the problem with this new Safari update and how can it be solved?
Info:
Safari 5.1.4 and iMac 24, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
I think what I'm talking about are javascript links...when you go to, for example, [URL] I'm talking about the links in the box on the right labeled "Most Watched Video." None of the links IN THAT BOX work for me. By "work" of course I mean go anywhere or do anything. It's as if I'm clicking in an area of a page without links.
This happens for me in other sites with similar links. What gives?!
I've checked Firefox and am running the latest version of javascript. I'm also running the latest version of Firefox 3.6.8. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.4.11 - old system software, I realize, but I simply haven't been able to afford moving beyond this (plus my Mac is a Macbook, 2GB RAM, 80GB HD - old unit).
Requirement is to add a fixed url, [URL] as bookmark to safari - browser on click of a hyperlink.
For Example: Following works in IE and Firefox but does nto work in Safari.
<a href="javascript:if(document.all)window.external.AddFavorite('http://facebook.com','facebook'); else if(window.sidebar)window.sidebar.addPanel ('facebook','http://facebook.com','');">bookmark http://safari.com</a>

So I rebooted my Mac after installing some software updates. I then go to YouTube... but there is a problem, it looks funny. I can't watch any videos because it says "Hello, either you have JavaScript shut off or you don't have the latest version of Flash Player Installed"
1. I tried installing Flash again, nothing
2. Checked Javascript, same thing happened.
Firefox works well I guess.
Firefox has been my main browser b/c Safari 4 was slower for me and also no Noscript. Safari 5 though is noticable faster for me and I'd like to go back. Malicious javascript is still a concern, even if remote. I use clicktoflash, but that only blocks flash. Is there a plugin or extension that will block javascript on a page unless I allow it or whitelist it?

Every time I try to open a specific website, it pulls up an error saying "This site requires the use of JavaScript. Please check your Internet settings.". Javascript is enabled on Safari, but still won't work. I've tried opening it in Firefox and Google Chrome... same thing! I tried to uninstall and reinstall, no luck.
Performed 3 tests using Sunspider.
Chrome (5.0.307.7 beta)
Test 1: 409
Test 2: 405
Test 3: 397
Safari (4.0.4)
Test 1: 496
Test 2: 495
Test 3: 493
In terms of personal experience, Chrome feels a lot faster now. [URL]

For security reasons:
Should I tick the box to enable Java script in my web content (in Safari Preferences)?
I have a very simple form with input type="file" and a listener of onchange event for this field.
1. User selected file A and press "upload" button. I send the file to the server via AJAX.
2. Now I need to clear the file field. I tried different ways to do this:
- set value of input to null or ""
- call "reset" method of the form
- reset innerHtml/outerHtml
- use input type=reset to reset the form
3. Whatever I do the value of the input seem to be clear, but! If I select the same file A in this input "onchange" event will not be fired. This is not convenient because in our case sometimes user will need to do re-upload of the file with the same name. In other browsers (like Chrome, Firefox) it is enough to set value of input to null to get onchange event fired when we select the same or another file.In Safari nothing works and it looks like a browser issue.

I just had to install a new hard drive to my mid 2010 imac. I restored with time machine. I cannot find the original OS disc. Upon restoring it appears there is a problem with the webkit framework as Safari, App store, and Skype all freeze upon clicking on them and after bouncing, they never open. Chrome is working. What do I do?

I have a Javascript file that detects key codes, but it is set to react to Windows keyboard keys. How would I adapt it to work with a Mac keyboard? Code: // Hotkeys document.addEventListener('keydown', function(e){ if(e.shiftKey && !e.ctrlKey && e.altKey){ switch(e.keyCode){ // Edit styles with Alt+Shift+E case 69: editStyles(); break; // Unblock elements with Alt+Shift+U case 85: unblockEle(); break; // Block element with Alt+Shift+B case 66: blockEle(); break; // Unblock latest element with Alt+Shift+L case 76: unblockEle(true); break; // Block elements (don't use nth-child) with Alt+Shift+W case 87: blockEle(true); break; } } }, false); The Alt key is the problem. I guess the Alt/Option key on a Mac keyboard is not the same as the Alt key for Windows. What name would I give to have that key recognized?

I'm new to macs and I am pulling a prank on a friend. I am trying to run a javascript function everything he submits a forum. I have written my javascript already but I have no idea where to start.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to get on youtube for days on both firefox and safari and it seems as though my javascript is turned off or something. When I go to check the settings in my browsers it says its on but youtubes site won't even load for me not just the videos but the whole site. And then when I go to other sites with videos that would pop up they don't show up?
View 11 Replies View RelatedRecently, I was abroad with my MacBook Pro running Lion. I noticed I was no longer able to do a LOT of the website reddit. I noticed many other sites seemed to be "broken" and buttons not working, messages poping up, etc. I realized it seemed Javascript was off... but it wasn't. I checked firefox settings and it was indeed on. I tried Google Chrome and Safari to find, they too, did not work with javascript anymore.Javascript is an in-browser thing. I have NO idea how this problem occured.
Well I got home and turned on my iMac. Everything worked fine. Did some software updates and then Adobe Flash wanted to update, so I let it. I had updated Flash while I was abroad too. Today I've noticed that my iMac, is also, not working with Javascript anymore.
This has made things extremely inconvienant for me. I have no idea how to fix this, and I'm forced to use my Windows computer to login to sites, post things, and even use some favorite sites like reddit fully. I have tried Googling this problem and I find nothing recent that seems useful. I would imagine if this has infected two of my computers it must have happened to more people. Strangely... I don't find anything.

I've had my unibody 2.0 since November. It's always said 5 hours or so when i open it up fully charged. This week it's started fluctuating wildy. While typing this post it's gone from 3 hours 23 mins to 4 hours and five mins....it started at 2 hours....now it's up to 4...very odd. Any ideas on why this has started happening all of the sudden?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was trying to watch a show on Slice.ca and it kept telling me that my JavaScript wasn't enabled and I was unable to watch the video. a few days before I was able to use the site perfectly, but after downloading the new Java update it wont work. When I go into my preferences on safari, it says that java-scrip is in fact enabled, so I'm not sure why the website isn't recognizing that it is enabled.

I put off doing the software update on Safari... I just HAD a feeling something would go wrong and I didn't have time to mess with it if it did.
So today I ran and update. And it messed up.
Now Safari will "open"... it looks like it is open and I have access to all the menus. But a Safari window will not open.
I am surprised that I haven't seen others with this problem. I have tried deleting the cache and deleting the preferences file. Neither seem to have made ANY difference.
I'm at a loss as to what to do. And I am feeling like I'm missing a body part. I need my Safari back!
I am about to launch my website but am having trouble with my google font. For some reason when I scroll up and down or move the mouse over a word, the font gets light and pixel-y. Can anyone tell me what to do to fix this? It doesn't happen in older versions of Safari or in Firefox.

My wife has been having issues with Safari suddenly reverting to previous pages without being prompted.She will be writing an email and suddenly it will go back to a previous page with the resulting loss of text already typed.It has happened with email, Facebook, as well as during simple surfing.

I can't seem to get a working Time Machine backup going on my Mac Pro, late 2009 model. It's been problem after problem with everything I've tried. Very frustrating as I definitely need a reliable backup for an extensive payload of work files.
First I tried Western Digital MyBooks that I carried over from a PC. Formatted, set up Time Machine, worked great for about a month. Then Time Machine started to fail and stop backing up. Numerous formats later and the same problem persisted. I swapped MyBooks for another identical 1TB external and had roughly the same problem -- worked fine at first then Time Machine failures after a few weeks of use.
Next up, I tried a Seagate external drive 2TB. Virtually same problems.
Finally, I tried connecting Time Machine with my 2TB Airport Extreme. Not even one backup successfully completed.
It's been a couple months and I have gone for way too long without a reliable backup. I'm looking for alternate hardware and software suggestions, please.
I've looked at Drobos but I'm seeing a ton of complaints and failures cited. What are some other good options?
OK, I'm a little stumped by this: I open a new tab that is blank...not even showing history. When I type in an address on the blank tab (2nd tab), the 1st tab changes and the 2nd tab stays blank. In order to view multiple pages, I have to use New Window. After several windows.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis started happening before today's update to 10.4.11. I was running Safari 2.0.4 and am still having the same problem with 3.0.4. No flash will work in Safari, it was working fine and then just stopped for no apparent reason. Flash based websites won't load, YouTube video won't load, basically nothing that involves flash will work in Safari. Firefox works perfectly fine. I've tried uninstalling flash with Adobe's uninstaller and reinstalling it and then repairing permissions. I've tried deleting the plugins myself and reinstalling, that didn't work either. I have no idea what's going on, things worked fine and all of the sudden it won't work at all.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just updated Safari to 3.2.1 and it has gone crazy. It only loads a little of the page and then stops. What is wrong?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI downloaded this: [URL] to add the "tweaks" menu. After I downloaded it I had some trouble getting it to work. I originally just dragged the contents of the folder (not the folder itself) into where it is supposed to go and that didnt do anything. So then I redownloaded it and dragged the folder itself into it, that didnt do anything. then I got rid of the orignal Menu.nib file and it caused Safari to not even start. After retrying a bunch of times I eventually got it to work. Once I got it to work I clicked on the "view webless ct" tweak (or whatever it said) just to see what it was, and viola, Safari wouldnt load. Everytime I try to open Safari now, I got an error message saying safari needs to quit.
I even reinstalled safari, didnt work. THEN I threw the installation .dmg file in the trash, as well ass safari it self into the trash and emptied it. Then I used firefox and redownloaded Safari 4 from apple.com. After downloading and installing safari 4 again, restarting the computer, it STILL shows the error message. How can I get safari back to work? I really dont like Firefox.
I recently updated Flash, and it's no longer working properly. On many sites it works just fine (YouTube, for instance). On some sites, however, it loads but doesn't work, if that makes sense. For instance, on [URL] where Flash is used, it shows a loading symbol stuck at 51%. When I right click and select settings, the settings panel for Flash pops up but everything is grayed out and it won't even close when 'close' is clicked.
View 7 Replies View RelatedSince yesterday, Youtube hasn't been working for me when I use Safari.
If I click on a video, the comments and everything will load, but the spot where the video itself should be playing is just a black screen. Researching this problem, it seems that it's usually a firefox issue, but I'm having it on Safari.
Youtube is working on Firefox, so it's not just Youtube being down or something. Also, I can't see embedded videos from Youtube on forums or anything.
Things I've tried and have failed:
- Resetting Safari (clearing cookies/cache)
- Logging out of Youtube
- Resetting my computer
- Turning off my ad blocker
- Changing my I.P. (probably stupid, but just in case I got super banned from youtube somehow)
I'm on Lion. I've tried going to Library/Safari, but the Safari folder doesn't exist. So I can't delete topsites.plist.
