website crashes safari? not firefox?

[.mark.]

Hey, I went to visit a website and it completely crashes safari but it works fine in firefox?

can someone else try it so I can find out if it's my safari that's the problem or if it's a general issue.

the website is 100% legit - its a music shop based in Birmingham, UK and I've ordered from them many times with no problem whatsoever.

Yup, it crashes Safari consistently.

Ditto. I wish I understood Crash Reports

It doesn't crash Safari 3.1.2 on a PPC running 10.4.11. But I guess that doesn't help you.

Could be java? Makes my safari crash or lock all the time. No idea why.

All fine on Leopard 10.5.4 and Safari 3.1.2

though my uncle has a the same problem with safari 1.3 on his panther machine. I'd like to know more about te javascript idea to help him with that.

Are you up to date software wise?

On a Mac, go to the app menu "Safari" next to Apple menu, and "Report Bugs to Apple"

On a PC, go to Help menu and report bugs.

I'm on 10.5.4, Safari 3.2.1, on an MBP 2.33GHz.

Well, as you can see, I am. It still crashes.

What's weird, though, is that Omniweb 5.7 doesn't crash on that site. It's certainly an "Apple-bug", and not a question of not being "Up to date".

You hit the nail on the head. I disabled javascript from the menu, and guess what – safari didn't crash.

Certainly a bug with Apple's implementation.

thanks for that guys. I got a newsletter thing from then and that crashed mail to! it was quite rich content so maybe they had javascript going on in there to.
