The webwiz forums doesn't seem to work properly with Safari
for Mac OS X. When trying to post this message, a blank page
appears on the page where i should normally get the "post new
topic" page.

The download version will work fine in Safari but you need to disable the WYSIWYG post editor as Safari likes to try and indentify istelf as using the Gecko engine when it doesn't.

This has been resolved for the next release that will be out in the next few weeks.

The reason for it not showing correctly on this site is that by intergarting it with the rest of this site so many tables are used Safari can't cope with the table rendering process.

I have had emails recently from poeple who use Web Wiz Forums on Mac related sites who say that they have many people using the forum who use the Safari browser without problem.

Is this "next release" the 7.5 version of the forum, or is it a
newer version?

I disabled the WYSIWYG editor and i'm still seeing blank pages
when i use Safari. Could you post a link to a Mac webwiz forum
here plz? I'd like to find out if i can see that forum correctly.

Why not just use a btter browser like Mozilla nearly all sites work in it under Mac, unlike Safari which has problems with a gerat many sites.

I'll second that - Safari's not too great at the moment. A new version will be bundled in with OS X 10.3 which I should imagine will be available to everyone else too once that's out on Friday.

Yup, and it's a bit crap at some things... it's improving though.

By the way borg, in the active users list on WWF I show up as using Netscape 6 when I'm using Mozilla (not Firebird, I have problems with it).

Could you tell me how to fix that please, or is there no way to differentiate between Mozilla and Netscape?

Cheers.
