Safari not accepted into some websites

I've noticed recently that I can't load certain website like Expedia or CNBC. With Expedia it tells me that I HAVE to use one of their recommended web browers. Travelocity also suggest that I update to "a modern webbrowers" but at least I can load their page. With CNBC it seems to see safari but confuses it with the moble and sends me to their moble page. Anyone else noticing these problems?

zalster --
Thank you SO much for sharing this.
There are so many times when we go off the track
emptying caches, plug-ins, doing even a reinstallation of the OS!!!
And lots of times, it's as simple as a firewall/AV app.
Good job!

Why do the "SHOW THE PREVIOUS PAGE arrows not work on some websites such as when I try to return to the previous page the arrows at the top right of the page are not dark black they are light grey and do nothing---HELPPPP

why do the "SHOW THE PREVIOUS PAGE arrows not work on some websites such when I try yto return to a previous page the arrows at the top right of the page do not work instead they are light grey instead black and do nothing---this is frustrating to not be able to return to the page before--HELP

If a page you go to opens in a new tab, there is no 'back' to go to. If that is the case, just close the tab and you'll be at the page you came from.

Why can I log into some websites on my MacBook Pro and not on my MacPro?

Only just started happening...I have used 3 different browsers on my MacPro and still can't log into some webpages where a password is required.
Flickr, eBay, some on line shopping sites....
i have deleted cookies, cache, history, everything. Reinstalled the application (Firefox and Safari) but nothing.
Go to my new MacBook Pro and it connects..
I plan to do a full combo download and install of 10.6.8 however can't work out what's broken? I use Virus Barrier and MacScan but have (I believe) turned them off.

Thanks for the advice everyone.
Working through them without much luck...
New user didn't help.
Have turned off MacScan.
No improvement as yet.
P.S. Not sure how MacScan and Virus Barrier X would interact as they seem to do different things... I got both of these as apps in bundles so didnt really specifically buy them.
I can't see any proxy setting in network preferences so will need to go into virus barrier and check.
Reading the "recommended text" on Virus's for homework.
Tomorrow it will be Appzapper for them both if the patient shows no sign of improvement.

Safari does not work with some websites

Allthough Safari works fine with most websites, I recently discovered that with a few it does not work properly.
With one: http://prive.eneco.nl/ the webside does not recognise my user IDE
With the other:http://prive.eneco.nl/ it does not load the page after a selection is made
In both cases Mozilla works fine.
Is there any body who could advise a solution?
Thanks

You can get Firefox 3.6.16 here:

The horizonal scroll bar is not there on some websites.

The horizontal scroll bar is missing when i visit some websites. Here is one of the websites, but there are plenty of others: http://www.fixya.com/support/t23137801-cannot_connect_android_tablet_arris
I know there is content to the left or right of the screen portion I can see because I can get to it using the arrow keys on some websites. On other websites, the arrow keys don't move the screen but I know there is content over to the side because I can see the edges of pictures and buttons.
I tested two other browsers on the example website I referred to above. Internet Explorer does not have the problem, Chrome has the same problem with the scroll bar as Firefox does.
This problem is tolerable on the websites were the arrow keys are a substitute, but on other sites, it makes the website useless.
I have disabled all browser extensions and that did not solve the problem. Changing screen resolution has no effect on the problem. I am using Windows XP on a ten year old desktop. Windows updates are installed automatically.

You have solved the problem. It is just an oddball glitch in code of that website and a few others, or in Firefox. Following your suggestion, I used the Ctrl+ and Ctrl- function on the example website. Repeated use of the Ctrl- reduces the content down to a size that can be viewed without scrolling, and there is, of course, no scroll bar. Then I used the Ctrl+ function and increased the size of the content so that it is bigger than the physical screen. At the point, the bottom scroll bar should appear but does not. However, if I keep going with the Ctrl+ several more times, increasing the size of the content, a scroll bar eventually appears. Strange, but harmless if you know the work-around.
Thanks for the help.

Suddenly Safari can't render some websites properly.

Suddenly, Safari started to act wierd yesterday. Some websites don't render properly and the formatting is very bad. The problem is Safari, since I have no problems when using Firefox. Here's some pictures:
The websites shown are facebook, Lynapp (photo viewer application) and time for TV (danish online TV guide). To me is seems that elements in the background are misplaced and somehow the font for commenting stuff on facebook is changed to curier or some random mono-spaced font. That's only on my side of course. Also, certain elements on a simple bulletinboard-style forum is highlighted with a clear green color like this:
(Don't mind the red & white boxes, it's the green stuff I mean).
Could it be some problem with CSS or HTML5?
I have tried to disabling WebGL, clearing the cache and doing a complete reinstall of safari but neither of it worked. I don't want to go back to using Firefox because I really like Safari with the awesome iOS integration.
Any ideas?

Select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them and test.

Adobe Flash Player (AFP) not working on some websites. Help please?

I am trying to view some websites, but the area turns gray where the interactivity is (where Flash Player is needed). I uninstalled everything related to AFP, then went to the sites so they could direct me to install. I installed (I hope) the most recent version of Flash, went back to the sites with no luck. Can someone please help me? Your assistance is appreciated. Thank you.

Javascript items will not load into my website with Safari

I have a website that uploaded fine with Safari, www.onefineparty.com. Lately the site does not show the javascript photos, only white boxes. The javascript uploads fine with Firefox on Macs and with non-Safari browsers on PCs.
We have 2 macs that have this problem: MacBookPro and IMac G5.
Both have OSX 10.4.11, with Safari 3.1.2 (4525.22)
Both have Javascript enabled.
Do I need to tell my potential clients to turn off Safari and use another web browser to view my website?

It holds the answer to your troubles. Safari Inspector show two major errors in the code.

I am not able to use my CORRECT user name and password when logging into some websites. I am using a new c omputer with Vista business.

If I use my laptop with XP, I have no problems. I also can login on my son's computer that is running Vista premium. What is the problem?? I have tried disabling add ons, virus software, defragging, disk clean up, clearing history, cookies, cache.

"Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now" 
"Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies" 
 
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Problem with Safari and Firefox opening some websites

In Firefox I have recently been getting:
THE CONNECTION IS RESET
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web
Also a message in Safari:
"Safari can’t open the page because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection, which sometimes occurs when the server is busy. You might be able to open the page later."
It is only occurring with a few sites, but occurs on the same websites in both browsers.
I'm using an iMac, running OSX 10.4.11 and using Airport to connect to a Netgear wireless router.
I've emptied cashes, cleaned cookies, reset browsers etc, I've run MacScan, but the problem persists.
Having already done some on-line searches I have seen people talk about proxies, DNS and possible malware (though usually referring solutions to PC's.
Any one know of a fix for this?

Hi,
Make sure your are running the latest version of Safari. From the Safari Menu Bar click: About Safari
The version number will be displayed there. You need to be using 4.0.4 If Safari needs updating go to your Apple Menu then click Software Updates.
Safari 4.0.4 requires the 2009-001 Security Update. Open System Preferences/Software Updates - Installed Updates. If that update is not listed go here.
http://support.apple.com/downloads/SecurityUpdate_2009_001__Tiger_PPC
Also, open System Preferences/Network. Select the tab. Make sure none of the boxes are
checked under: Select a proxy server to configure
Try disconnecting the router from it's power source for 5 minutes, reconnect the router and
restart your Mac.

Firefox 11 do not display properly some websites

Hello. I wold like to ask your help in setting the Firefox 11 browser for a correct dispay of my website. This is how the site looks in Firefox 11: http://transport-in-comun.ro/firefox/site-Firefox.jpg and this is how it looks in IE8: http://transport-in-comun.ro/firefox/site-IE.jpg .
About the site: the page is written in FrontPage (I do not have many knowledge of web-design), and the photo thumbnail and text near it is put into a 796px wide tabel. For some reason, Firefox 11 "narrows" the table.
I didn't have this kind of problems when I was using Firefox 3.6, even if I was using it under Windows 7, that had the ClearType turned on by default. After the upgrade to Firefox 11, I start having problems in the viewing the above mentioned website and other sites with similar structure. I tried to adjust the ClearType settings, but it didn't help. With ClearType disabled, the text in the site is displayed how it should be, but it's fade.
Thank you.

Thank you all for your fast asnwers. The "Use hardware acceleration when available" was the problem, I disabled it and I will post a message on my site about this.
The site is on-line in the same aspect since 2005, modifiyng the whole site to fit with Firefox11's default setting is not a good option. At that moment, placing a tabel (alligned to the center of the page) and puting in it the thumbnails with links generated by ExpressThumbnailCreator, than manually adding the description in the HTML view of FrontPage was the simplyest way possible to make the site appear properly on my 800*600 px resolution I used then. Of course, I upgraded my hardware and software since then, but the site remained mostly unchanged (except the index and a few files). I know it's time for a new version of the site but... my web-design knowledges are limited to basic HTML.
