The case of the missing content

hmmn_missing.gif

M-san of Nippon Daze and Hajimemashou was kind enough to send me the above visual proof of something that Nils of alive in kyoto commented on a couple of days ago: that in Apple’s new web browser Safari, the main content on the first page of this blog is missing! In other words, if you’re using Safari right now, then you are not actually reading this entry but rather staring at some lonely looking white space. Now, as any regular readers of this blog will know, I am quite capable of making my own content go MIA for weeks if not months at a time, so I really don’t need Apple’s aid in this regard.

I’ve checked Movable Type’s Support Forum, as well as Mark Pilgrim’s Safari information for web designers but so far nothing obvious has reared its head. And not having a Mac myself, tweaking and testing my CSS is not really that feasible. Considering that this is still a beta release of Safari that we’re talking about, I’m inclined to wait till a solution finds me rather than the other way around, though if anyone has any good ideas I’m all ears.

I suppose this is what I deserve for never having felt the desire to jump on the Apple bandwagon all these years (:

  1. An update to Safari (beta v.48 –> v.51) was released today, and since most of the complaints have been about css, hopefully this will be addressed. Alas, I can’t seem to get the updater to work yet. Safari is really fast at loading pages, just amazing, but, yeah, content is disappearing in some css contexts. Don’t look at my site now, I’m getting all the cgi stuff hooked up.
