Open website, page jumps top to bottom back to top.

Safari v 5.1.2. Not happening in Firefox. Strange and very annoying.

Check Safari > Preferences - Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
If it's not an Extension causing the page issue, go to Safari > Preferences then select the security tab.
Deselect:  Enable plug-ins
Quit then relaunch Safari. If pages don't "bounce" then you have a Safari third party add on installed that's causing the odd page behavior.

Bear in mind, it could be a plugin that does not affect Firefox.

  • Mi iPad 2 in safari , always closes when I open a page or App, takes me back to the home page, help

    Why does my iPad 2 close every-time I open a page in safari or email.  The iPad will close and go right back to home page.  Even the other night I tried to face time with the kids.  As soon as we connected,  it would close and go back home page.  Help

    So Google Search keeps track of every search result that is clicked on from their search page. Do you have Do not Track turned on? These settings can be turned on too if you have not yet already.
    [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
    This add on, called Google Privacy [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-privacy/] shows tracking-free links or optionally replaces the results with those links.
    Let them know how this works for you.

  • Automatic music upon opening website page

    Hello all. I was wandering if anyone knows how/if you can have music/theme play upon opening your webpage using iweb. I know that you can drap a song into the page where the person clicks on the play button, but can you have it open the page and play a song in the background??? if so how canyoudo it?
    Thanks.

    You have to do this outside of iWeb-
    follow the "music in slideshow thread" as this can apply to any page on your site

  • Restoring open web pages from previous hard drive back up

    I've had to replace a hard drive on a Mac computer running OSX. I had a large number of web pages open in Firefox on the previous drive, which I backed up completely before the new one was put in. I would like to restore these pages (similarly to the "restore previous session" function) perhaps using the Profile data from the application backed up on the previous drive.
    Is there a data file or files that I can simply copy and paste over from the Firefox application contents on the previous hard drive which will allow me to to restore the session I had up before the hard drive was replaced when I start Firefox on the new computer? A solution to this would be much appreciated.

    The ''sessionstore.js'' file in your profile folder stores your open tabs.

  • What is the icon on the far right that looks like a circle and has a small number that changes depending on the website page? in the bottom right edge of

    I am wondering what this thing is.
    It is an icon located on the far right of the page next to the search toolbar. It is shaped like a circle with a number on the bottom right edge. The number changes depending on which tab I have opened. An empty tab has no number. This page results in a 1. I have another page open which results in a 4. The number shows white in a small orange box. The circle is outlined with a thick black line. What does this icon indicate?
    Thank you.
    John

    Hi John, I'm guessing that icon is created and updated by an extension. I'm not sure which one, though. Maybe something that is tracking the trackers, like Lightbeam? Have you tried hovering your mouse over the icon to see whether a tooltip appears, or clicking it?

  • The list of open web pages just flipped from right to left. How do I get it back on the right? Thankyou.

    The list of open web pages, which normally sits bottom right on my screen, flipped to the left. How can I move it back to the right?
    I clicked Alt + tab and saw 'Deplacer' (Reposition - I'm in France). Then the cursor became a thing like a crossroads and I clicked where I wanted to put the list of open pages but nothing happened.

    You may have placed the bookmarks icon on the Navigation Toolbar to open the bookmarks in the sidebar instead of the bookmarks menu button that opens a drop down list.<br />
    There are two icons available for opening or accessing the bookmarks that both have a star.<br />
    The icon with the drop marker opens the drop down list with the bookmarks (Bookmarks Menu button).<br />
    The other, without the star, opens the bookmarks in the sidebar, just like the Ctrl+B shortcut or View > Sidebar > Bookmarks

  • Page jumps to bottom of form on load

    I have embedded this form and each web page jumps to the bottom of the form. If my content is more than a couple of lines then the page navigates to the bottom on page load. Running inside IBM Web Content Manager Portal system. Had the developers look at it and they say it is on the Adobe script end. Happens only in IE7 and IE8. Please assist.

    Randy,
    Thank you for the questions.
    1. The page is housed on a webserver.
    2. I used the code from the distribute tab and I used the copy button on the bottom of the window that the code pops up in when I choose embed.
    I have tried hosting the form in an <iframe> but it makes no difference. In Chrome, Firefox and IE9 it works fine and does not jump down.

  • I am having serious issuse trying to open websites or links which i have never had before

    I am having serious issues trying to open websites/pages or links which i have never had before. For instance when i open Firefox and my tabs start to load, sites such as Yahoo, Gamespot or Fox News struggle to open (these are just an example of a wider picture) Other times Firefox just freezes either for Minutes on end or completely until it either crashes or i have to task manage out of it. Firefox has total privelages through both my antivirus software and the in built Microsoft firewall. I never used to have this problem and speaking to some friends some of them are experienceing the same thing and due to the lack of help from Firefox have reverted to using Explorer. I do not recieve any error messages or messages stating there are problems with any of the sites that struggle or fail to open. I have tried disabling all add-ons and starting Firefox in save mode but no luck. I have also tried to change the settings in Options / Privacy - History from Remeber History to Use custom settings for history but this just keeps reverting back to original setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated as i don't want to return to using Windows Explorer.

    FF4 has problems with script-heavy sites. There are two solutions:
    1) Downgrade to 3.6

    2) Use a different broser

  • How to stop IE9 from opening web page in the middle of browser

    Greetings,
    I'm opening a page with a video on it and for some reason, IE9 insists on opening the page so that the bottom of the video is in line with the bottom of the IE9 browser window.
    It's like IE doesn't want to cut off the lower part of the video.
    FF is not having this problem and opens pages with videos as it should; at the top.
    This pic doesn't really do it justice, but when the page opens, the video is in line with the bottom of the browser window.
    Thanks for any help you can give!
    k

    It looks exactly the same to me in FF10 and IE9 on Vista.  The page is longer than my viewport.  I must use the vertical scrollbar to see the page bottom.   Hit Ctrl+ - a couple of times to Zoom Out.  Refresh the page (F5).

  • On opening when I start to type in the google box the page slips to the bottom making it necessary to scroll to the top and hope it stays there. What can be done to correct that

    I have a HP Media Center PC with XP Professional with all 3 fixes. I don't know what more details you need. When I start page comes up for Firefox it is properly positioned. When I start to type in the search box of Google it jumps to the bottom of the page making it necessary for me to scroll back to the top before I can try to type again. Very annoying!

    Do you have the Google Toolbar installed?

  • Why do html page links on iweb suddenly start opening the pages at bottom not top?

    Why do html pointer to pages open those pages at the bottom not the the top on a web page I am working on with iWeb. Software seems a bit flakey as sometimes if I close the site down and then reopen it all is ok. Any ideas? Thanks. Sean

    Okay, I figured out the problem with those certain links not working on www.calgaryyouthrally.com. The grey background was apparently covering the links somehow on the first and last pages of the site (due to its becoming enlarged in IE8). I made some changes and took care of that problem.
    But, the enlarged grey background is bugging me. It is acceptable in Firefox and Safari. But in IE8 the grey extends well beyond the actual size that I made it. The grey shape with the white picture frame around it is what I have made in iWeb. But in IE8 the grey is extending well beyond the white picture frame border. What can I do to fix this? Any ideas? Again, the site is www.calgaryyouthrally.com.
    Thanks!

  • Refreshes to bottom of page randomly without prompt, and back button won't work unless clicked several times.

    I've noticed that every time I open a page, I am automatically redirected to the bottom of the page, after scrolling up to the top I can only go a few minutes on that page before Firefox refreshes to the bottom of the page again without my doing anything at all. It's similar to when you're viewing a page at a certain point, and you refresh, it'll refresh back to the spot that you were viewing, only it's as if Firefox thinks that I was down at the bottom of a page I haven't opened before (in all cases with any website I visit), and it brings me immediately to the bottom of the page, and then several times when I'm simply viewing the page.
    The other issue is when I try to hit the back button. You know those obnoxious websites that don't really go back unless you hit the back button a bunch of times, or go to the drop down back menu? EVERY page is like that now. I can't go back on most pages because if I go back to far, it goes to a blank page that I started on and then the forward button greys out. It's almost as if Firefox is having a laugh at my expense, but I don't want to give it that much credit.
    This is most irritating when I'm working on Webassign.net, my calc homework pages cause Firefox to crash or freeze up anyway when I have to use their textbox with complicated math symbols, so when ti starts freshing and jumping all over the place while trying to input complicated equations, I usually just have to close everything and open Firefox again. I lose a lot ot math homework that way.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|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).

  • How can I eliminate the constant attempt of add-ons opening in new tabs and tabs redirecting everytime I open a page or website that I DO want??

    No matter what page or website I am on, as soon as I go to another website or want to open a page of my choosing, multiple unwanted pages try to open wanting me to add on, install, etc. or additionally, get tabs opening that say redirected. Result is that the whole time I spend on the net, I keep having to close 2 or 3 tabs of wanted pages constantly trying to open before I can stay on the one I actually want.
    In addition, is there any way to modify or eliminate the constant popups opening on the sides, the bottom, and tops of pages...all over the place, while I'm trying to view a page. I spend more time trying to close all that junk before I can read something and then it even comes back and I have to do the same thing again.?????????
    please HELP!!!!!!

    Sounds like you have have inadvertently picked up a dose of Malware.
