Drop menus not working in Safari on iPhone 3.0 software

There is a website that I use for work that has links that once touched used to drop down a sub-menu. This used to work before I upgraded to 3.0 yesterday. Any suggestions? I've checked to make sure that all options are the same in the Safari menu for JavaScript, Plug-Ins, and Block Pop-ups - they are all set to ON as they were with the older iPhone software.

Why don’t we use a site that everyone can use and play with as an example.
www.BESTBUY.com
This site is loaded with drop down menus for product selection. The Iphone 3.0 will still allow the drop down menu to appear. But as mentioned earlier, the header is already activated. There is no chance making a selection from the drop down menu. I find it hard to believe that APPLE didn’t test this. Must be a bug introduced with a last minute security patch.
APPLE fix it.

Google Images not working in Safari on Iphone

Since a while back the "images"-tab in google does'nt work on the iPhone in any of the browsers I've tried. I've searched the net to find others with the same problem but with little luck. Here's a description of the problem.
For example I search for "dog" in google in the Safari browser, this works just fine.
Then I press the "images"-tab and get a thumbnail view with pictures of dogs, of course.
But this is where it all goes wrong, when touching one of the images I get an enlarged view of an image next to it. The "back to the results" and "full image" buttons dim out (without being touchable) and swiping does not work. I don't know what has caused this to stop working properly, I know its not the new iOS version though.
HERE is a youtube video I prepared that explains the problem.
First, is there anyone else out there with this problem?
Second, this is what I've tried:
- Other iPhone web browser applications, for example "Mercury", "Opera Mini", "Skyfire" and none of them works except "Dolphin" (good work).
- Resetting any of the settings in the phone, clearing cache and such have no effect.
- Resetting the iPhone totally, factory settings. No effect.
- Using someone elses iPhone. I've tried on an iPhone 4 and iPhone 3S, same problems (with iOS 5.01).
- Trying out all of the settings in google, no change.
- Setting the google view to "classic" instead of "mobile" works of course, but that makes the site look just like on a PC or Mac and is not what I'm after.
Third, this problem seems to just affect Swedish users from what I can tell. There would be thousands of posts about this if everyone in the world was affected by it, but so far I've seen no posts on this matter. But after searching a while I found a swedish forum site on the subject. Link (in swedish). Also, when visiting google from Sweden some form of script automatically changes the url from .com to .se. I don't know if this has something to do with it?
Anyone know what causes this problem and how It might be resolved?
Best Regard
Stefan, Sweden

Hi Stefan,
First; this must be the most thorough error discription I have ever seen. Impressive.
Second; yep for a couple of weeks now I've been having exactly the same problems as you describe. One other thing that I've noticed, is that for me, the 'word suggestion drop down list' or whatever it's name is, no longer works. More specificly:
I open Safari in my iPhone, surf to Google image search and type for example "dog" in the search field. Below the field, I now get a list of suggested words or phrases that I think is based on the most popular searches. For me, the first suggestion in this list is "dogo argentino" (a specific and popular breed of dogs). When I tap on the words "dogo argentino", the search field normally would switch input from "dog" to "dogo argentino" AND starts the image search automatically. However, since the problem showed up, when I tap on "dogo argentino" the input field is not affected (still reads "dog") and I would have to type "dogo argentino" manually and hit "search".
I use a Swedish iPhone 4S (5.0.1 (9A406)) in the Telenor network. I also have tested the same possible solutions that you describe in your post, but with no luck.
All the best,
Ingo

Youtube not working on safari on iPhone 5

When I got my iPhone 5 I noticed I could watch any video I wanted on youtube if I was on desktop mode in safari. For the past week or so I realized I can't do that anymore and I keep getting a message saying "sorry, this video is not available on this device." Turning my phone on and off is not working and my friends with iPhone 5 said they're experiencing the same thing. Can somebody please explain to me why I'm all of a sudden restricted? Thank you.

Some videos are not supported to play on mobile devices, I to have come across this issue and this is how i fixed it.
If you are on youtube in safari:
- press the 3 lines top left
- scroll down to the bottom
- select desktop version
From here safari will change youtube from the mobile version to the desktop version. Choose the video that would not play and it should work like a charm.
Hope this helps

Javascript dynamic drop down not working in Safari

This script works properly in windows IE, Firefox and mac Firefox, Camino, etc. but NOT in Safari. It controls a dynamic dropdown. Select the state 'Category' and the second dropdown 'metro' shows the city - in all browsers except Safari. For brevity, the example below shows only WY. When Category is selected, the Safari javascript console says:
"Value undefined (result of expression selectbox.options.add) is not object."
Is there anything I might be able to change so this will work in Safari? Thanks for any advice. Page is at http://look-on.com/ddTEST.html
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

Hi
the test page works fine in a very recent nightly build of Webkit ( the system framework behind Safari ) & Safari 2.0.4
I'm still on 10.4.9, so it's possible that 10.4.10 might fix it anyway.
..... since webkit fixes it, it's likely a bug that's been cured.
However, that doesn't help you get it working in older versions; you may get more help in the web-dev list at http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo

JQuery Drag and Drop Plugin Not Working on Safari 7.0

I have a website that uses jQuery Drag and Drop and it is working on Safari 6.0.5, Chrome, and Firefox, but it doesn't work on Safari 7. Any ideas why this would be?
In genearl Safari has a lot of CSS and Javascript issues. If there is a place that list all of these issues and solutions I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

More information would be great.
What type of site is it? WordPress? Joomla or Drupal?
What drag and drop theme or framwork are you using?
What version of software and theme, what type of hosting, what version of PHP and mySQL?
I'm having similar issues but details such as these will go a long way to grouping symptoms and getting to the bottom of the problem(s).
One thing I've noted is that in most cases everything is actually working. It's just taking an unbelievably long time. jQuery isn't the problem either. It seems more closely related to the quantity of available tasks on a given page.
There are forum posts for v7 that say Safari isn't compatible with WordPress for example. It is compatible and works just fine, but if you're running the latest version of Catalist Theme and their Dynamic Site Builder you can't do anything with Dynamic admin because all its options are on a single page which appears to be too much for Safari 7 to handle for some reason. Folks are having similar problems with Genesis, Headway Theme, Pagelines and many others.

Drop down not working in safari

I've had my iPad since last summer and just recently am having issues on my online banking website. It's only occurring on one of the screens where there is a drop down menu listing accounts. It will allow me to see what is in the drop down but always blanks it out after selecting a value. This is a required value to be used on the screen in order to process the information...so the page errors out when you try to submit the info b/c this value was blank.
I can't recall exactly if this behavior started after I upgraded to os4...
Anyone else having this issue.? I've attempted to use several other browser apps and the same result...
Just to add to he confusion, the website page works on my iPhone running os4...the drop down will blank out, but you can select it again and submit without errors...

Wifi on iPhone 5 not working, as well as, iPhone 4S with software update

I just got the iPhone 5 and it will not connect to wifi. I have tried to reset the network settings and turn off wifi then back on, nothing is working. Also have an iPhone 4S that I just upgraded software on and now the wifi wont work on it either. I have a total of six apple products (iPhones/iPads) and the only ones no longer connecting to wifi are the ones that have the new software on them. What is the problem?

close out of the phone app, double tap home button and completely close out of the app.
then do a reset, no data loss. hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for your phone to boot back up.
Then check voicemail again.

Adf partial page rendering not working in safari (iphone and ipad)

Hi,
ADF rich faces PPR seems to not work in safari browser on iphone and ipad.
PPR works first time around, but fails on the second click on the same page on the sam button.
Any one else had the same problem with Safari browser?
Johnny

Hi Shay,
Thank you for the quick answer.
No it does not work on the ipad or iphone.
It works on chrome for the ipad!
PPR does not work for the second click on the same button.
In you example it will accept the first click but ignore the rest of the clicks on the same button.
We are about to create a ADF app for the ipad and this is a major showstopper.
Hope we can find some sort of workaround, that does not involve dropping PPR.
Regards Johnny

Safari hierarchical menus not working correctly

Hello all,
I'm having a problem with Safari's hierarchical menus not working correctly. They pop out in odd positions, and--worst of all--the big ones (for folders that contain lots of bookmarks) pop out right on top of the main bookmarks menu, making it all but impossible to navigate that main menu. I've tried all the usual tricks: log out/restart the system, restart Safari, reset Safari, boot in safe boot mode, repair permissions, yank Safari's bookmarks prefs file, even reinstall Safari, and nothing worked. I've also noticed the same behavior in Camino. My system hierarchical menus work fine, though, so I'm thinking I have a corrupt prefs file somewhere. I'm using Safari 4.04 with no extra plugins beyond what come with it on 10.5.8. Does anyone know what's going on and how to fix this?

AFAIK, the submenu will pop on either side, depending on available space and if there are further subfolders, allowing them to continue in the same direction.
Since the new account doesn't exhibit the issue, there are two ways to attack the problem. One is to log into your new account, make a list of the preference files (plists) located in /username/Library/Preferences/, including any in the ByHost subfolder, log back into the original account, move everything not on that list into a newly created folder on the Desktop, log out and back in, and see if the problem goes away. If so, you can copy the ones in the Desktop folder (one at time) back into /Preferences/, restart, and see if the problem returns. If so, you've identified the corrupt/conflicting one. Continue with all of them until isolating the bad ones. That'll save you the trouble of resetting preferences.
The second way is much more detailed and I'll not burden you with the steps unless the above doesn't fix the issue.

Drop Down menus not working in newest Internet Explorer.

Wait - are you using the long-discredited Macromedia "Popup menus"?
I'm surprised those still work in any browser. You should read this about them -

How can I get my dropdown menus to work on Safari?

I am in a real bind here. The blog I use for my class I teach has dropdown menus, but these don't seem to work in Safari on iPad. They work just fine in Chrome, but our lovely school blocks the Chrome browser...Don't even get me started.
Is there something I could add to the code to get these menus to work in Safari on iPad?
The blog URL is stmlatin2020.blogspot.com
Thanks

Try this ...
Tap Settings > Safari > Advanced then make sure JavaScript is switched ON.
That site is not optimized for iOS devices. Only browsers on desktop computers suport CSS (drop down menus).

YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

Drag and drop does not work in firefox 3

Does anybody has the same issue with firefox when you add a layout to the oracle composer and you want to drag and drop some components that it just does not work...
When i hoover over the title bar of a component i see the cross icon but the drag & drop does not work. WHen i do the same in IE8 or google chrome, it does work.
I have this issue for both oracle composer stuff as for sites i build in webcenter spaces.
We are working with the latest version of webcenter

WebCenter is compatible with:
* Firefox 2 & 3
* Internet Exploirer 7 and 8
* Safari 3.0
It might be caused by a firefox extension in your browser.

Why hyperlink color change not working with Safari?

With several sites I visit when I click on their text link lists I see a colored symbol change to let remind me I visited that site. Unfortunately this only works when I use Firefox or IE, not Safari. Is there a reason this does not work with Safari? Is there anything I can do? thanks.
Safari 3.2.1

Hi ..
YouTube content requires Flash.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
Not empty the Safari cache.
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
Now try a video. If you still have problems, try troubleshooting Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
