How to Stop Safari display of links in hover bars when rolling over pages?

Sure, this may be a feature, but it is a nuisance. I often go to web sites, e.g. staples.com or officedepot.com that have catalogs of products in which each image can link to a particular product's page. They usually have a little more info about the product that pops up during hovering over the image(s). Only problem is that you can't see what THEY display because something like "Great GPS device for $..." gets covered over by a yellow test hover bar display from Safari insisting on you knowing that the link will take you to to "http://officedepot.shoplocal.com/officedepot/Default.aspx?action=browsepagedet ail&storeid=2478180&rapid=515623&pagenumber=1&listingid=-2091997555"
I can't find an option to disable this ugly hover pop-up "feature" in Safari.

Hi
Have a look at my earlier post on removing the yellow prompt box.

  • How to I stop safari from automatically resizing the bookmark bar when I click on the search bar?

    there is probably an eloquent way to ask this but I don't even know what the feature is called.
    Here is what it's doing:
    I'm using safari in landscape mode on my iPad.
    I click on the search bar and then the bookmarks come up below.
    It takes a second to automatically resize to a size that make no sense, usually cutting off bookmark titles...and the delay of it resizes drives me nuts.
    Safari did not used to do this until I guess ios 8. Any ideas how to stop this annoying "feature"??

    Try deleting the Cache.db...
    Quit Safari.
    Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch Safari ...
    You may want to try the Safari Reading List as an alternative to tabs.
    Click the eyeglass icon just to the left of the Bookmarks icon top left side of the Safari window.
    Drag the url to the window or click Add Page

  • How to stop safari on ios7 from remembering history?

    How to stop safari on ios7 from remembering history?
    I hate to continually delete my history. Is there a way to stop it or set it to delete it on its own every day?

    Hey Bigchins!
    I have an article here that can address your question for you. The feature you are looking for is called private browsing, and it is explained here:
    To enable or disable Private Browsing, turn Private Browsing on or off.
    Private Browsing in iOS 5 protects private information and blocks some websites from tracking your behavior. Safari doesn't remember the pages you visit, your search history, or your AutoFill information.
    Note: While Private Browsing is enabled, the Safari bars appear black or dark instead of blue or gray.

  • How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    It's not really something to snap a screen shot of. I believe it would need to be a video clip. For instance, when I am working on multiple images in Photoshop, I often need many images open at the same time, but I only have one image viewable and active. The hero image is active on screen while I hide the other images in the dock by hitting the yellow - button on the images. Then I "Hide" Photoshop to do something in the Finder. When I go back to Photoshop, every image that is hidden in the dock will pop open again in the active window, not just the image I was currently working on. I want these images to stay in the dock until I need them, no matter how many times I Hide the Show Photoshop.

  • Linked images "jump" when rolled over

    When rolling over an image being viewed on a page in IE/Mozilla, it seems to "jump" if it is linked to a larger version of the same image.  Am guessing it is a setting in Page Properties, but I believe I've changed just about everything with no luck. 
    The actual code of an example is: <td width="250"><div align="center"><a href="http://www.meistersoftware.com/images/tmp_pkg.jpg"><img src="images/tmp_pkg_tn_f8.jpg" width="140" height="101" alt="sc tmp" /></a></div></td>

  • How to stop to display the main report page header in the subreport!

    Hello all,
    I have an existed report that display the CR page header on every page of the report. Now I added another subreport into report footer without using link. How do I stop to display the main report page header and display the subreport in the new page with subreport header only? I really appreciate your time to help me out on this issue. Thanks.

    Hi,
    I tried to supress the page header with (onlastrecord and TotalpageCount > 1) condition, but the last page of main report without page header. I still like the page header display on last record, but not on the subreport only. How do I get it? Thanks in advance.

  • How to stop Safari from realoading page and worst, start at the TOP?

    When clicking something, for example an article in an online newspaper, after reading, when you scroll back to the newspaper, Safari reloads and starts at the TOP of the page. This drives me crazy, and I have to work hard to figure out were I was in the very long frontpage of the online newspaper. Please help!
    PS! Opera DOES NOT do this. So I want Safari to behave like Opera :-)
    But Opera is not as good on a Mac as on a PC (I tried), so I have to use Safari, and therefore needs to figure this out.
    Please help! :-)

    This Apple-forum we now are using are a great example of the how totally useless Safari is.
    I tried to find answer for my question, and pressed "more" at the bottom of the page, and then "more" again and again until I found something interesting i want to read. So I was a bit down in the forum frontpage. Opened the forum-post, read and used mouse gestures to get back to the forum.
    Safari reloaded and startet at the top of the page, so now I must scroll down and press "more", scroll down again and press "more" again, scroll and press "more" and then once again, just to get where I was in the first place!!!
    Well, I am speachless. If this problem is unsolvable, I have no other choice than find another browser to use. This is just too stupid and it drives me crazy!
    So, you kind people out there, this is really an emergency.
    And if Apple-staff are reading this, well, you now know what you have to do, fix it immediately!

  • How to stop safari on iPad from opening tabs

    When browsing, Safari opens new tabs unexpectedly when I do not want a new tab.  I end up with many tabs, often more than a dozen, open unnecessarily.
    Is there a way to control or stop Safari from opening volumes of tabs?  Under what conditions does it open new tabs?

    Sorry, you can't. Tabs came with iOS5 I believe. Best you can do is manage them and close extras as they pop up.

  • How to stop safari from redirecting you to an app?

    When I'm in safari and I want to click on a link for a website like Amazon or Google Maps, safari automatically redirects me the app without asking if I want to be redirected. Other than just deleting the app entirely from my phone, how do I stop this from happening?

    Specifically, which page is it?
    If the page uses rotating advertising, it could be that the entire page reloads every set interval and not the ad itself (which would be the smart thing to do) and thus forces the browser to be pushed back to the top of the page.
    If the page doesn't use advertising and just refreshes itself for new content every set interval, it could set Safari to the top of the page, too. In short, it seems like the problem is not on your end but rather the website.

  • How to catch and display a link content in another portlet page?

    Can you tell me how to display a URL content into next page after an user click s on this link? I am developing a JSR 168 portlet under a Portal. I have 3 pages so far in my portlet. view.jsp, view2.jsp and IpByHourPage.jsp. view2.jsp displays a lis of IP address. When an user clicks on an IP in view2.jsp, it goes to IpByHourPage.jsp. How to catch the IP address such as 123.23.89.21 that an user just click displayed in IpByHourPage.jsp. I don't know why I got null value returned.
    Also, I don't know how to do a "go back to previous page". I want to go back to view2.jsp from IpbyHourPage.jsp
    Here is my code
    in view2.jsp
    <portlet:renderURL var="aURL">
    <portlet:param name="goto" value="IpByHourPage"/>
    </portlet:renderURL>
    <a href="<%=aURL.toString() %> "><%=MyIP%></a>

    </portlet:renderURL>
    <center> <a href="<%=Ret_IPByHour.toString() %> "><b>Choose Another IP</b></a></center>
    in my .java file
    protected void doView(RenderRequest request, RenderResponse response)
    throws PortletException, IOException, UnavailableException {
    response.setContentType("text/html");
    String MyBegDate = request.getParameter("BegDate");
    String MyEndDate = request.getParameter("EndDate");
    String MyNetworks = request.getParameter("networks");
    String MyYourName = request.getParameter("yourname");
    PortletURL renderURL = response.createRenderURL();
    renderURL.setPortletMode(PortletMode.VIEW);
    request.setAttribute("renderURL", renderURL.toString() )
    String GotoRenderAction = request.getParameter("goto");
    String MyIPHourAction = request.getParameter("Ret_IPHourPage");
    if ( (MyIPHourAction!=null) && MyIPHourAction.equals("Ret_IPByHourPage") )
    PortletRequestDispatcher kk = getPortletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/view2.jsp");
    kk.include(request, response);
    if (MyIPHourAction != null && MyIPHourAction.equals("Ret_IPByHourPage"))
    PortletRequestDispatcher mm = getPortletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/view2.jsp");

    PortletRequestDispatcher prd = getPortletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/view.jsp");
    prd.include(request, response);
    The problem for above code is the clicked single IP can not be displayed in IpByHourPage.jsp. and I cannot go back to view2.jsp from IpByHourPage.jsp. when I click "Choose Another IP"
    I find out that the MyBegDate and MyEndDate values are all null when I click Choose Another IP link. I got the following error message
