Strange behaviour iPhone 4 Safari

While testing my website's mobile version on several devices, I noticed a very strange behaviour.
I have a scrollable content div with overflow: auto, and this works properly on all tested devices, except iPhone 4 on Safari. Other browsers and devices display it correctly, even iPhone 5 Safari.
On iPhone 4 Safari, when you scroll to the end of the content, a lot of extra whitespace appears at the bottom (looks like 100-200% extra height) and the text disappears when scrolling. This doesn't happen on any other devices in Safari, nor does it happen in other browsers on iPhone 4.
Has anyone ever heard of such a phenomenon before? I have absolutely no clue what causes this behaviour or how to fix it.
Since I only have access to a limited amount of devices for testing, I may be overlooking other devices/browsers where this issue also occurs. If you have a mobile device and want to test it as well, the live site is here: Live site. On the mobile homepage, click one of the logo's to expand the content, then try scrolling down.
How it looks on iPhone 5 Safari when scrolled down (no issue): Image
How it looks on iPhone 4 Safari when scrolled down (issue): Image
Is this possibly a device / OS-specific bug?

Strange behaviour with Safari.

Very strange behaviour with Safari this morning. Pages loading piecemeal or partially. The content only becomes viewable after the cursor has passed over the area. Have cleared caches and reported it but I'm wondering if this is a local matter here in the UK. Anyone suffering similar problems? Firefox is responding perfectly normally.

I see a reply has come back via a previous post. As I am trying to get a response to this one I shan't reply there but I should point out that for me, this is an isolated problem. I do use open DNS but with no track history of problems there , I can't blame that.
In the last few minutes normality has returned.

Strange behaviour on Safari when trying to submit form using iframe

Hi All,
Not sure if this is the correct forum to raise this question
I am using iframe based mechanism to submit my login from and it is working fine on each and every browser except Safari.Here is the HTML form I am using to submit the information
<iframe height="0" width="0" name="loginFrame" hidden="true"> </iframe>
<form:form action="${loginActionUrl}" method="post" commandName="loginForm" id="header-signin" target="loginFrame" name="header-signin">
<input type="text"   name="j_username" id="header-signin_j_username">
<input type="password" name="j_password" id="header-signin_j_password">
<input type="button" class="btn1" value="Sign In" id="login" formnovalidate="formnovalidate"/>
</form:form>
and here is the java-script code
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#login").live('click',function(e) {
      if(validateSigninForm('header-signin')){
          $("#header-signin").submit();
there are some additional JS code which is being used
if($('#header-signin_j_password').length){
    document.getElementById('header-signin_j_password').onkeydown = function(event) {
        if (event.keyCode == 13) {
         triggerSigin(this.form.id);
triggerSignin is simple using Jquery submit method to submit the form.
When I fill the password filed and press the enter button, everything is working fine and page is getting refreshed with the help of the iFrame, but if I click on the sing in button, Safari is opening a new browser window and sending null values to the back end server.
This behavior is only noticeable for the first time and if I click on the signin button second time, It will be working perfectly fine till I close the browser and open it again.
I am not sure what is going wrong here and this approach is working fine on all other browsers.
Can any one help me in this?

Okay I tried something new. I changed the email address listed under my account in the Server app, and then went back to add the short name again. This time it allowed the save. Then I went back to Server and changed the listed address back to what I entered as the short name, and it let me do that, too. I guess the order you do this in matters. Odd.

Strange Behaviour after re-installing the OS

Hi people.
Basically, i've been experiencing some strange behaviour with Safari since re-installing my OS. I'm running Safari 3.0.4, and i'm on a G4 iBook running 10.4.11.
Firstly, it's not remembering passwords and user names to a few sites. My homepage is set to a Auto Forum i use daily. Now, when putting your password in you can check a little box that says 'Automatically log me in each time i visit'. I tick the box, when Safari ask's if i want the password to remembered i say yes. log-in as normal. If i then go away from the page and come back to it without quitting Safari, it's asking me to log in again. It remembers my password details etc, but doesn't perform the auto login like it used to. I've reset Safari, cleared Cookies, Cache etc, but to no avail. It's becoming quite annoying!
Secondly-the scroll bar on the right side of the screen keeps disappearing-and when it does, i can't manually scroll down the pages with the arrow keys either. Any thoughts? If manually moving from site to site, it's ok-it's when i access my bookmarks page and the scrollbar disappears, that it seems to remove it for good. I then have to quit Safari and re-launch it. But then i'm back to square one! If i need the favourites, i'm stuffed!
Any help appreciated...

Hi!
Thanks for the reply! I've started to download the update, got Pacifist already so it's just a case of the download finishing. I'm a bit worried though, i ran disk utility earlier and it came up with 2 errors, one of which couldn't be repaired. I hope it's not the HD on it's way out and causing problems as the new HD isn't even a year old yet...
I get a bold red message when using Disk Utility, which reads:
"Invalid Leaf record count
(Should be 2 instead of 46)
1 Volume could not be repaired"
I guess i'll give the Safari thing a go, then go for Disk Utility as per the other thread. Don't really want to wipe the HD and do another install-only done one 2 weeks ago!

Safari 3.2.1 Strange Behaviour

This week Safari 3.2.1 is exhibiting very strange behaviour that I have never seen before. I can launch Safari and it opens my home page no problem. I can then access another page anywhere on the web, no problem. But then, if I click a link to open another web page (in same tab window) it says "Looking for server" and hangs. This includes trying to reopen my home page (which is a local file on my hard drive!). However, if I open another tab and then click another web link, it opens in the new tab window. But then it exhibits the same strange behaviour if I try to open another link in that new tab window. Then Safari hangs totally if I try to quit the program and have to use "Force Quit".
This behaviour is affecting my login only. The program works normally in other logins. I have tried deleting the .plist file in my home library but to no avail. I have deleted all caches as well (using "Reset Safari" command).
I am stumped and need advice on what may be causing this.
Thanks
Rudy

Reset system and user caches.
Download and run Onyx. Select Automation. Only check system and user caches in the cleaning section. Restart your computer.

Strange behaviour - any ideas?

Strange behaviour began when i was unable to open a new page in photoshop.
The next day i was unable to print from word or photoshop or emails.
However i could print from freehand and excel!
I used disk 1 to verify and repair disk.
this did not solve the problem as then when i tried to open Safari the toolbar opened but no window.
I have reinstalled the operating system making an archive but this also has not had an effect.
Any ideas on what to do next or should I just reinstall the operating system over the old one?
many thanks 4 any help

Sarah, to help the knowlegable users here please advise which model G5 iMac you have & include this info in your system info preference by clicking on the "My Settings" link in the right hand column.-->
This way, you won't have to keep repeating yourself and the knowlegable users will be able to provide you with the correct trouble shooting information/solutions if the problem is your computer.
Also, it will be helpful if you will advise which version of Word, Photoshop you have, which email program & the type of printer you are using.
Thank you.

Strange behaviour with Slideshow placement since upgrade to 3.2 from 3.1

Hello, since I upgrade from 3.1 to 3.2, I have some strange behaviours but in particular with the placement of a slideshow on a new page. It is not displaying in the same position as I have in in Design. It is way off and going up over my menus when I look at it in Safari or Chrome. Does anyone know how to fix this or could it be a bug?

Ben,
When you upgrade, only apex_030200 will be created and that will use the tablespace you specify. It does not have to be the same one used by flows_030100.

Webpage searches (FB, IMDB) crash iPad/iPhone Safari

Facebook live search or IMDB live search on their respective websites always crash my ipad and iphone safari. Solution?
By live search I mean when you enter letters, it starts bringing up results immediately. Strangely the google one doesn't crash Safari.

Can you explain how you enable live searches on these sites? Can you upgrade your iOS to the latest version (4.3)? No use troubleshooting an out-of-date OS.

APEX Listener and EPG - strange behaviour

Hi
For some years, I've used EPG for APEX but have struggled with performance particularly as I can have up to 150 student developers using at any one time.
I do a fair amount of work using ORDImage and have successfully developed APEX applications to upload image files and display full-size and thumbnail images.
After upgrading to APEX 4.1 (from 4.0), I decided to install APEX Listener standalone.
Before I did so I checked that my applications still worked in 4.1 and they did.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.
Configuring APEX Listener and running the same application through that DOES display the images.
So this part of the application works under APEX Listener but not under EPG.
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed upload. Under EPG it works as expected and I get a success confirmation.
So this part of the application works under EPG but not under APEX Listener.
Has anyone else come across different behaviour depending on the mode of connection?
Thanks
Brian

Hi Brian,
it sounds like you have both EPG and APEX Listener running on the same machine, so your problem might result from a port conflict. Note that both services use TCP port 8080 as default.
At least a port conflict would explain the strange behaviour in your case, some things working on one web server and some on the other.
Some parts of your initial post hint to that direction, e.g.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on >wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.... because the APEX Listener only interfere with the EPG if it is at least running on the same machine as your database and furthermore, if it is unconfigured in terms of ist database connection, a port conflict might be the only way it could cause anything like that.
However, if you are sure that's not the issue, please check if you see any error in the APEX Listener's log for the following action you performed:
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank >page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed uploadIf you actually see just a blank screen, something very bad must have happened and you should see some kind of stack trace there.
For further investigations, if necessary, it would be helpful to know how you deployed or started your APEX Listener and which JDK version you use.
For the moment, I still think the port conflict is my best guess.
You could avoid it by either changing the port for EPG (I'd not recommend that if you have other users still using it) or by changing the port for your APEX Listener.

Strange behaviour of Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command)

hello guys,
i wrote a program which executes some commands in commandline (actually tried multiple stuff.)
what did i try?
open "cmd.exe" manually (administrator)
type "echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" and hit enter, which returns me
"AMD64"
type "java -version" and hit enter, which returns me:
"java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b25)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b12, mixed mode)"
type "reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\7-zip"" returns me:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\7-zip
Path REG_SZ C:\Program Files\7-Zip\
i wrote two functions to execute an command
1) simply calls exec and reads errin and stdout from the process started:
public static String execute(String command) {
          String result = "";
          try {
               // Execute a command
               Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
               // Read from an input stream
               InputStream in = child.getInputStream();
               int c;
               while ((c = in.read()) != -1) {
                    result += ((char) c);
               in.close();
               in = child.getErrorStream();
               while ((c = in.read()) != -1) {
                    result += ((char) c);
               in.close();
          } catch (IOException e) {
          return result;
     }the second function allows me to send multiple commands to the cmd
public static String exec(String[] commands) {
          String line;
          String result = "";
          OutputStream stdin = null;
          InputStream stderr = null;
          InputStream stdout = null;
          // launch EXE and grab stdin/stdout and stderr
          try {
               Process process;
               process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe");
               stdin = process.getOutputStream();
               stderr = process.getErrorStream();
               stdout = process.getInputStream();
               // "write" the parms into stdin
               for (int i = 0; i < commands.length; i++) {
                    line = commands[i] + "\n";
                    stdin.write(line.getBytes());
                    stdin.flush();
               stdin.close();
               // clean up if any output in stdout
               BufferedReader brCleanUp = new BufferedReader(
                         new InputStreamReader(stdout));
               while ((line = brCleanUp.readLine()) != null) {
                    result += line + "\n";
               brCleanUp.close();
               // clean up if any output in stderr
               brCleanUp = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stderr));
               while ((line = brCleanUp.readLine()) != null) {
                    result += "ERR: " + line + "\n";
               brCleanUp.close();
          } catch (IOException e) {
               // TODO Auto-generated catch block
               e.printStackTrace();
          return result;
     }so i try to execute the commands from above (yes, i am using \\ and \" in java)
(1) "echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%"
(2) "java -version"
(3) "reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\7-zip""
the first function returns me (note that ALL results are different from the stuff above!):
(1) "" <-- empty ?!
(2) java version "1.6.0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)
(3) ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
the second function returns me:
(1) x86 <-- huh? i have AMD64
(2) java version "1.6.0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)
(3) ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
horray! in this version the java version is correct! processor architecture is not empty but totally incorrect and the reg query is still err.
any help is wellcome
note: i only put stuff here, which returns me strange behaviour, most things are working correct with my functions (using the Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command); code)
note2: "reg query "HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\CentralProcessor\0" /t REG_SZ" IS working, so why are "some" queries result in ERR, while they are working if typed by hand in cmd.exe?

ok, i exported a jar file and execute it from cmd:
java -jar myjar.jar
now the output is:
(1) "" if called by version 1, possible to retrieve by version 2 (no clue why!)
(2) "java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b25)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b12, mixed mode)"
(3) C:\Program Files\7-Zip\
so all three problems are gone! (but its a hard way, as i need both functions and parse a lot of text... :/ )
thanks for the tip, that eclipse changes variables (i really did not knew this one...)

IPhone Safari doesn't open links in new page

Under iPhone Safari Settings, I've got it set to Open Links In New Page, but when I click on links in Safari, that doesn't happen. When I set it to Open Links In Background, that doesn't happen either. Links open in the same page no matter what the setting.
Anyone know how this can be fixed? Thanks.
(iPhone 4S running IO5)

It depends on the website. Some websites have it set up to take you to a new tab, some do it in the same tab.

How do I stop iPhone Safari from dynamically resizing the visual viewport?

Sorry I post this here, but I couldn't access the developer forums (no error given, it just keeps returning me to this page https://developer.apple.com/devforums/) I'm not even sure wether that's been moved here and it's just the redirection non working.
I need to Stop iPhone Safari from dynamically resizing the visual viewport, or in other words, to stop it from trying to "fit" the layout into the viewport.
Why?
Because any recalculation javascript does on absolutely positioned elements makes the whole site super IRRESPONSIVE.
I don't know wether the issue is the element going out the already-set layout viewport (which triggers the page resizing to fit the visual viewport) or just the calculations being made constantly, but I can stop the calculations from happening when not "touching" the screen, but I need a way to stop the page resizing.
I tried setting the viewport width to 1040px, as my layout width, and it fixed the header's width being narrower than the body (or shifted left?), but the whole page is still resized with every motion-frame (one every 3 seconds, due to overloading the redrawing engine)
Is there a way to prevent that?

No, that link doesn't solve it. It just says the same is found everywhere online.
There's probably no way to do it, as per their way they "accidentally" omitted the oposite case: the page being wider than 980. They only mention what to do if the site is narrower. Something I learned is big companies (with reputation management) could let you run in circles for years no answer rather than telling you something is not possible.
I'm the developer (can't access the dev forums, don't know why) and I DID setup the viewport, scale and other properties but none of them stopped from re-fitting the new re-sized layout in the viewport. They just ensure the "initial" view.
I think the feature I'm looking for must be achieved with some JavaScript function targeting Safari-proprietary variable/property… if even possible.
I just had to make things never reaching the edge until somebody contributes something useful

View Master mode strange behaviour with jpg files

Hy all,
I'm using Aperture, and I'm tweakin a lot the SW to discover all secrets ....
I'm really concerned about a strange behaviour of the SW in view mode.
If I open a jpg file, do not apply ANY modification, and apply the "show master" command (pressing M), there's a subtle behaviour :
*the images get sharper !!!!*
It behaves as if an "edge sharpening" was applied !!!!!!
With _RAW files this thing doesn't happen at all._
Even stranger, if I zoom to full definition (by pressing Z), and toggle between normal view and "show master" view, the immage remains the same !
The effect is not so evident with all images, but sometimes it is !!
Anyway, I expect not to have such kind of things with a professional SW.
With professional cameras and good quality files it's really annoying not to beeing sure what's the REAL content of the jpg image.
Has anyone noted this thing ? Is there a reasonable explanation ?
The only one I tried to figure out is the following : may be Aperture applies some kind of resampling algorithm with jpg files (bicubic, bilinear, etc).
May be this resampling is not applied with 100% magnification, as weel as with raw files.
But it's only my guessing. Now, I'm tweaking other viewers and other SW to understand what's the real jpg image stored in the file : the blurer one form normal view or the sharper one with "show master" mode.
I stress once again : of course, the jpg file I'm talking about have no settings at all, just imported and toggled with M button.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Enzo

Hy,
I'm afraid I'm not been clear.
The problem is this :
1) jpg image opened in normal view mode, no zoom, (no quick preview, of course) : image with a certain amount of blour
2) jpg image opened in show master mode, no zoom, (no quick previre, of course) : image SHARPER with respect with the previous.
No edit applied from import, so "show master" command shouln't apply any change in rendering, should it ?
The only thing I said on 100% view is that such difference (between normal mode e show mastermode) is not present with 100% magnification.
That was the issue.
Enzo
