Safari Screen Draw Glitch? - History Coverflow Appears within Web Pages

I've started noticing on a few websites that somewhere within the webpage a portion of History Coverflow will appear within the website I'm visiting...
See pic below
Running Safari 5.0.2 with all OS updates installed.

I'm not getting the CoverFlow interface partially appearing in windows like you are, but on two of my Macs, I've noticed hundreds of +error: unknown error code: invalid drawable+ messages in the console from Safari.
I think it's definitely a problem with CoverFlow, as when I launch Safari without going near the History or TopSites screens, I don't get these messages. As soon as I invoke the History window (CoverFlow view), once I return to browsing, the messages start. It's something to do with Safari capturing and caching screen images.
The way I've avoided this until it's fixed is to change my default homepage to anything other than TopSites, and to use the History menu rather than the CoverFlow view.
I've certainly had a few little glitches in Safari 5.x generally.

My Safari displays text in certains spots on a web page as mixed characters

My Safari displays text in certains spots on a web page as mixed characters. Is there a fix for this or does anyone have an idea what may be going on? I have looked at my fonts and everything seems to be working just fine. I can't quite figure out why this only happens to certain text and not others. But I can't read half of the pages on the web because of this. I can copy the mixed up text out of Safari and past it in another application and the copy is in perfect english then.
an example of what I am talking about is below:

Here is what it says when I copy the same characters out of Safari and paste them below:

Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated

I work as a graphic designer so I keep a very clsoe eye on my font library. In fact I don't use font Book, I use Suitcase Fusion. But i went to font book and double checked and I don't have any duplicae fonts in there. Would you have any other ideas?
thanks for your help!

Ipad Safari screen is tinted in grey appears to be stuck? Cannot search?

I have an Ipad 1. When I go to Safari my screen is grey and it appears to be stuck? I just reset my network connection and it seemed to fix the problem. What hapened?

In the future, try tapping Settings / Safari. Clear the History, Cookies, and Cache.
Restart your iPad.
Press and hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider then swipe to power off. Then press and hold the sleep / wake button until you see the Apple logo.
If that doesn't help, reset network settings.

How to stop my safari screen from glitching?

The screen keeps glitching nearly all the time.

The screen in the top left corner (roughly 1/4 the size of the screen) NOT in full screen mode. Goes WHITE. If I try to scroll down it "flickers". Sometimes that can get it to go away or just shut down safari.

Safari 8 Cuts off the top of every web page

Ok, so I'm looking for a solution or I want to know if other people are having the same problem so hopefully apple will fix it.
As my title says, Safari 8 in Mac OS X Yosemite is cutting off the top of every web page while in full screen. Not just a few, every single one, and it only does it in full screen. It only started after I updated to Mac OS X 10.10.1, it was fine with the original release of 10.10. Any takers?
Thanks,
Chris

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

Can't select links within web pages

Just got an iPhone. Able to load web pages but once open, cannot now select any links within any web pages. Appeared to be working on Apple page initially but then stopped.

Make sure the page is completely loaded before clicking on anything..
Next use the zoom in feature to get a better angle at it
If these two steps fail try refreshing the page and then trying.

Is there an extension for Safari that would enable the user to mark their place within a web page (not just the web page itself)?

Hi all,
Thank you on all your points. I have fixed this problem. the problem is the /etc repository is not working. To check it i refer to SAP Note 1178294 regarding /etc repository in cluster environment. The /etc repository is used by the XML form. All my content in my web page such link list, teaser and etc is most often built using XML form.

First of all thank you for the reply,

Quit Safari- then relaunch-- DID NOT work, I still have all "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" IN BOXES ON EVERY WEB SITE I TRY TO VISIT.
BUT AGAIN THE APPLE WEB SITE I AM ABLE TO TYPE YOU THIS MESSAGE. ONLY APPLE SITE WORKS
2. Also tried to turn off any extensions ( i did not have any but turned off-- DID NOT work
3. I did try to troubleshoot the safari plist file.
I looked at some of your prior posts and tried those plist attempts. I tried to move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the preferences--AGAIN THIS DID NOTHING.
BUT......I tried this but not total solution. I went on my other mac--I opened Safari ( i think 4.03) but again another mac, I then went to Firefox web site and I COPY AND PASTED THE ACTUAL WEB SITE IN AND PUT IT ON A SMALL FLASH DRIVE--THEN COPY AND PASTED IT INTO THE ADDRESS WINDOW OF SAFARI 5.03, AND HIT RETURN-- IT THEN WENT TO THE FIREFOX WEBSITE AND IT VIEWED IT PROPERLY, SO I DOWNLOADED FIREFOX AND TRIED TO RUN FIREFOX.
AND LOW AND BEHOLD FIREFOX WORKS.
BUT I STILL CANT GET SAFARI TO WORK
again, i still get ON EVERY SITE USING SAFARI 5.03 " AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" capital "A"s in little boxes on every web site. Almost like some code is not being read correctly by Safari?
please advise some more if you can

Safari iOs crashes whe try to load my web page

I have already done my online shop web page (www.vistetublythe.com) and now I have a very serious problem, the web page crashes on safari for iOs devices, i dont know what happend, I can load fine the web on any computer and any browser, I can also load it well with Opera on iOs, but cant do it with Safair iOs.
Anyone can check and say me wich could be the problem?
Thanks

Did you try Settings>Safari>DebugConsole?
That wouldn't help with crashing would it? Once Safari goes, it takes the debug console with it. You might be able to dig into the log files from Xcode.
I tried the site by spoofing an iPad user agent. I got the following errors:
[cycle] DOM not ready, queuing slideshow jquery.cycle.all.min.js:10
[cycle] terminating; too few slides: 1
It looks like you are using the PrestaShop e-commerce service. It is pretty indecipherable. You will probably have to ask them about the problem. Normally, I would say look at what you are doing in the body.onload(), window.load(), and $(document).ready() events, but that stuff seems out of your control. The software is trying to manipulate the DOM elements before they are fully loaded. That is probably what is causing Safari to crash. Fixing it will probably require help from PrestaShop customer support.

A new Mac user on an older MacBook. I have some how changed the size of the typeface that appears on web pages. I have gone through and looked under preferences and reset everything that i could find but this still dosent work.

I will try to describe things better. When I pull up a web page (in firefox or safari) the type face in the columns is larger than it should be. This results in the columns spreading to a second line and rearragning the rest of the page.

Safari 2.0.3 required to load GAP web page

How can I update my Safari to 2.0.3 for my ibook which has OS X10.3.9. What is the alternative browser since MS also stop supporting Mac OS.

Hello nautilus66:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Unfortunately, Safari 2.0.3 only runs on OS X 10.4 (not OS X 10.3). Alternative browsers would be Camino or Firefox - I do not use either so I do not know whether or not they will address your issue.

Ap div locking location within web page

I am relatively new to web design but would like some help
with locking the ap divs to a position on the web template.
if I align left for the page everything appears to work ok.
When I align centre then this is where the problem starts -
the main page centres ok but the ap div boxes with text etc
although in design view it is ok when I test on IE the ap boxes are
to the left of the main page.....- any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Your problem lies in not understanding what an AP div is. The
AP stands
for "absolutely positioned". An AP div with a top position of
50px and a
left position of 100px will always be 50px from the top and
100px from
the left of the page. It never moves, because it's absolutely
positioned.
Not only is it absolutely positioned, it's removed from the
flow of the
rest of the page. So, if you have other elements in your
page, they will
act totally independently of the AP div(s).

Forcing Safari to load non-iphone version of the web page

Does anyone know how to force safari to load a regular version of a website instead of an iphone specific one? There are some websites I goto that forces me to the iphone specific one but I don't like the layout. Thanks.

The site is choosing to send you a different page based on the iPhone reporting itself as the agent accessing the page.
On some desktop browsers, it is possible to change the agent that is reported to the site. The iPhone's Safari browser does not have this facility, however.
You might try seeing if the main page is a redirect to a "normal" version or iPhone version. If you have the full URL of the normal version then you might be able to type it out more completely and go to it directly. This depends on the implementation of the site you're visiting, however.
(For instance, if http://site.com redirects to http://site.com/iphone or http://site.com/normal.html, you might try directly visiting http://site.com/normal.html. Again, this depends on the particular implementation of the site and what pages they've implemented iPhone dependent logic in.)
