New Safari 2.0.3 displays some Router Firmware pages as HTML Source text

Hello Safari users and gurus.
I installed the new 10.4.4 Combo Updater yesterday, preceded and followed by permissions repairs and other maintenance, including cleaning Safari Caches. Safari 2.0.3 works.
My problem: 10.4.4's new Safari 2.0.3 displays HTML source text after I click "Save" from within my Linksys (latest firmware) router's web based administration pages that worked correctly with the previous version of Safari.
When I check or change my router settings, the initial router settings pages appear as they did with the previous version of Safari. However, with 10.4.4's new Safari 2.0.3, as soon as I click "Save" to attempt to save a changed router setting, the confirming info from the router is displayed as HTML source code instead of the expected HTML page display.
If I wait for the router lights to indicate activity has ceased and then reload the router's opening admin address, the page opens again normally, and I can navigate to other pages and see that the changes have been saved. However, any click on any "Save" changes button in the router's pages delivers another page of HTML source text.
I will watch for future router firmware updates to see whether the issue is resolved from the Linksys side.
Does anyone have any suggestions for improvement now? All assistance will be appreciated.

Thanks glefand. As you suggested, I tried my old iBook G3 that is still running 10.3.9, and it works fine for me.
My G5 DP also worked normally up through OS X 10.4.3. My problem only began after I installed the 10.4.4 update. I think the Safari update included with the 10.4.4 update is what is causing the issue with the firmware pages on my Linksys router.
Hopefully a future router firmware update (or Safari update?) will restore proper operation. If not, I will continue to reload from the router's Start page. The need to work around this glitch is annoying, but the actual function of my router setup works without problem, even though the pages do not display properly.
Thanks again for your helpful suggestion,
Jim

I have tried to set my homepage to a specific website. However, whenever I open a new Safari window, it always returns to the last page I was at before I closed Safari. Any ideas? I did this was Safari preferences, open new window to homepage...

Safari is opening using the resume feature. To disable that, quit Safari using Command+Option+Q or Hold Option when choosing the menu item Safari>Quit.

My Problem like all the others, is for me, Safari isn't loading any web Pages, I just get a blank Page and nothing is happening, its just sitting there doing nothing.

Please someone help Me soon, I do have 2 back up web browsers but I prefer Safari because all my bookmarks are on there.
I wish Apple would fix this glitch before putting out the new Safari, because alot of people are having problems with the new Safari, is there a way that we can contact Apple and complain to them about Safari 3?
Thank you,

Im Glad you had solved your problem but I am still stuck on mine, I tried to see if I had a PicLens Plugins in my input manager Folder but I don't, what I have instead is a Folder called Smart Crash Reports info/smart cra...rts.bundle and info. icon document.
Safari 3.0 gets crashed by various 3rd party add-ons ("enhancer" programs and also InputManagers) which are doing things that are incompatible with it.
Based on what is working for other people in this forum, I think you should delete (or move to the Desktop or something) anything in your Mac's (global) /Library/InputManagers folder and also the Library/InputManagers folder specific to your logon to the Mac.
Also delete or uninstall anything else that is any sort of Safari enhancer/speeder-upper/skinner/prettifier.
If that doesn't work, it's possible that some time previously you had some add-on/enhancer thing which directly patched the insides of the Safari.app (ie directly changed the Safari application in your Applications folder, rather than installing itself in some other folders like InputManagers (and Apple has tried to do a non-destructive/merging update and left those unexpected and now incompatible modifications merged-in). In that case there are some instructions posted a couple of days ago on www.macfixit.com how to fully delete the Safari application and reinstall a completely fresh copy of it from the Combo updater for 10.4.11.
Anyway, I'd say the best first step as already posted here is to get rid of anything that is an InputManager or otherwise an "enhancer" to Safari and see if that resolves it for you.

Help! My Safari shortcuts do not display pictures of the page anymore on my iPad.

I use shortcuts from web pages for various reasons and after a recent update, when I try adding shortcuts to my home screen they no longer display photos of the page but ugly white boxes with lines throughout. The previous pages I have shortcuts to all still have a photo of the page on their thumbnail but the new ones I am trying to add do not. I have tried deleting and readding the shortcuts, restarting Safari, restarting my iPad, and restoring from a back up. None of these have worked though. Is there something I am doing wrong? A setting that needs to be changed? A new way of adding shortcuts from Safari? I am in charge of the iPads for my work and I cannot get any of them to have pictures for the thumbnail instead of the awful ugly white square with lines (7 total iPad2s having the same problem). Please help! Thank you!

I actually fixed it now, don't worry, I just followed this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKFFFe0r-T4

New Safari Window won't display

I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard at my work computer (they don't allow Lion yet). I ran the updates which upgraded Safari to 5.1. However, now I can't open a new window. It shows in the window menu that they are open, but they won't display, and I can't get them to. If I hit Command-L it will highlight the url field, but won't allow me to type anything. I've tried going back to Safari 5.0, uninstalled all extensions, deleted cache, reset everything etc. I now don't have any of my work-specific bookmarks and an unusable browser. I've deleted preference files, cache files, etc. It starts like normal, but if I close the window, or open a new window, it is locked up. Is there any way to fix this?

Anti virus software installed?
Does the same thing happen in another user account?
How about third party plugins?

Safari 3 still not displaying some pages correctly

Since I'm a .mac subscriber I would love to switch back to Safari from Camino so I can keep my bookmarks all in sync. Safari version 3 seems to be much faster and perhaps a bit lighter than 2.0 so I'm fully ready to make the switch.
However, I do have a web report that I have to access daily that Safari isn't displaying properly and I'm wondering if someone could tell me why. Basically this report is html I believe and about 15 columns wide. When I open the report in Camino, Firefox, and all Windows browsers it displays fine, but not in Safari. In Safari it only shows the first 4 columns. I think the issue might be the fact that the report is extremely wide and the other browsers adjust to this automatically and accept the fact that there is a good deal of left to right scrolling. Safari seems to only show the fields that it can display without increasing the width of the webpage.
Any ideas?

Post a URL so what we can look at it.

Firefox not displaying some Commonwealth Netbank pages correctly

Firefox 12 logs on to Netbank correctly but won't display list of transactions on accounts, doesn't display To./ From account lists when transferring money, doesn't indicate password strength when changing password.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Browser cannot display E3200 router web page from ethernet connection but can from wireless

I have installed my E3200 downstream from the Verizon FiOS Actiontec (going the other way disables FiOS functions).
1. My browser can get to the E3200 (192.168.1.2) when connected via wireless, but not when connected via ethernet cable.
     How do I fix that?
2. When going to connect wirelessly, the 2GHz connection is visible but the 5 GHz connection is not
     (I have them named differently).
     How do I see both wireless connections?

My browser cannot get to my E3200 setup web page from a wired Ethernet connection (wireless works fine).
The Linksys E3200 (1Gb ethernet, “n” wireless) is installed downstream from a Verizon FiOS Actiontec router (10/100 ethernet, “g” wireless).
I cannot put the E3200 upstream from the Verizon router because I would lose FiOS TV capabilities.
The E3200’s fixed IP address is 192.168.1.2 (the Verizon router is 192.168.1.1)
I cannot change the subnet (e.g. to 192.168.2.x)
Clearing the browser cache and rebooting both routers doesn’t help.
Both computers tested have dual band “n” network adapters.
So... wireless connection works fine, but I cannot get to the setup page via wired ethernet.
Help?

Safari will not display some media content despite Flip4mac loaded

As the subject indicates, Safari will no longer display some media content after installing Flip4mac. Where that media content would normally display all I see is a square with the Quicktime logo in the middle and a question mark in the middle. For example see the Dakar Rally site http://www.raid-live.com/dakar/en/index.shtml#. In my case Safari does not display the Flash content relating to "Premium Offers".
Mozilla displays everything fine though I don't particularly want to move between browsers depending on the on-line content. I'd rather not use Mozilla as in some cases the page appearances aren't as neat as those displayed by Safari.
Is there a way of restoring Safari back to its default settings in order get it to play ball.
Cheers
Chris

Also a possible explanation is Safari cache files. Safari can be quite stubborn about holding on to these and refusing to let go of a cache file for a page, not showing up-dated content. Since the new user account didn't have any cache files Safari displayed the file correctly there, and used a "bad" cache file in your original account. Even clicking reload doesn't necessarily force Safari to take a new look at the page code. Drives me batty sometimes. If that is the problem you can go to the Safari menu item, choose Empty Cache and try again. I'v had instances though where I had to empty the caches and quit and relaunch Safari to get it to display a page properly.
Another thing to do, to make sure something is a Safari specific problem rather than a system problem, is to download Firefox and try it with a funky page. If the page works in Firefox, but not Safari, you know it is Safari being funny and not your system.

Safari Won't Load Router Web Page

Safari 7.0.3
OS X 10.9.2
Mac Mini 2009
I recently got a new router: TP-Link TD-W8980
If I enter the router's IP address into Safari, I see the router's login page.
After I log in, all I see is a blank page.
If I close the blank page and type in the router's IP address again (before the session times out), the router's web page displays normally.
If I use Chrome, the behavior is normal.
Why do I have to close the page and reopen in order for Safari to properly display the router web pages?
Message was edited by: Buadhai - Correct spelling of Chrome.

I''m sorry, but I don't understand your question at all.
This is from the router's setup guide:
3.2 Quick Installation Guide
With a Web-based utility, it is easy to configure and manage the TD-W8980 N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router. The Web-based utility can be used on any Windows, Macintosh or UNIX OS with a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Apple Safari.
1. To access the configuration utility, open a web-browser and type the default address http://192.168.1.1 in the address field of the browser.
How would Safari know how to get to the router's web server if you didn't enter the IP address in the browser's address field?

Displaying userform on jsp page

Hi.
I'm using idm 5.5
I created new form (with BPE) that displays some messages defined in rule.
I would like to display this form on jsp page. How can I do it?
Or is there any other way how to display strings defined in rule on jsp page in IdM?
Thanks

What do you mean "print data on a JSP?" If you simply mean display dynamic content, you should def read up both on sun's resources and other googled resources for JSP walkthroughs...

Official Safari 4 Release Is Extremely Slow to Load Pages

Just installed the new Safari 4.0 (non-beta). Almost every page I bring up takes considerably longer to load. Graphics and audio are especially slow to load.
Apple just touted how much faster this browser is supposed to be at WWDC. ???
Anyone else experiencing these issues?

Besides audio and video, pages with multiple images take up to 20 seconds to fully load the graphics.
I originally experienced these issues on a MacBook Pro. Now I just installed on an iMac C2D 2.66GHz and I get the exact same experience.
On Beta 4.0, the same pages loaded in about 2 seconds, even after emptying cache and doing a shift-reload.

I can't control the background color of some of my pages in IE.

I normally use chrome to view pages. I started checking other browsers and ie displayed some of my pages with a white background when the code
says it is supposed to be black. I noticed that in the "bad" pages the code is faded out. I think it is a table problem. How can I fix it without starting over?
A screen capture below shows the "faded code".

Your Meta tags are both missing their closing brackets ">" in View Source in IE and Firefox.
Chrome shows closing brackets but only on the beginning of the next line - not sure if that's really there or Chrome making assumptions.
Nevertheless, in Code View, insert the > manually at the end of the <Meta> lines as shown in red below:
<META NAME="DESCRIPTION" CONTENT="Learn more about the Athens/Oconee County Georgia area that make it such a great place to live">
<META NAME="KEYWORDS" CONTENT="UGA sports. The Twilight Criterium, Athfest, The double Barrel Canon, Eagle Tavern, Ocone Schools, Gerogia State Parks">

Why is Safari not displaying some pages correctly?

Safari seems to be messing up again. Had this problem quite a while ago. It's not displaying some pages correctly.
Notice the 2 enclosed screen shots. I went to purchase something (no personal info in the jpgs)
Notice the W-Safari. Little trash cans by the purchase items missing as well as the submit button and a few other things. So I opened Chrome.
Notice in the W-Chrome, everything is displaying correctly.
I've had problems like this some time ago but I thought they were fixed.
Thanks for any suggestions or help.
