   Hello WP users,

   A few days ago, my site was showing up fine in Safari 3.0.4 for Windows but I just discovered today that it's completely distorted now. I don't know what brought it on - the only changes I've made to my blog in the last few days was installing and running WP-Cache, which I've removed, and then 1 Blog Cacher, which is still installed but currently deactivated due to validation errors it was causing.

   The only other changes I've made was changing my Kubrick image names from jpg to gif. I've gone through all the theme files and made the changes and I've double-checked that I haven't missed any.

   I've just spent the past day validating all my XHTML (I had 110) and they're all validated now so that's taken care of, but the site's still messed up in Safari.

   I've tried emptying the cache and resetting Safari but it's still showing up wrong. I know it's is not a popular browser, but about 4% of my visitors use it so I'd like to make my site compatible with it.

   On my Safari browser (in Windows XP), the formatting is messed up and the text goes all the way across the screen, disregarding all style sheet settings (font & format) and pushing the sidebars down. Also, the background and theme images aren't showing up right.

   If anyone here is using Safari on a Mac, could you please check my site for me and tell me if it's displaying ok?

   Or does anyone know what could be wrong?

   My site is:
   http://ourfourpenceworth.com

   It shows up fine in Firefox, IE6, Opera and SeaMonkey.

   Thanks in advance.

   Did you also validate your css?

   Hi, thanks for your response. I have validated my CSS. I do need to go through all the other pages and figure out why cformsII is still not validating, but if my main page and CSS is validating, shouldn't that at least load properly in Safari? Or does the whole entire site have to be validated before it does?

   im on a mac, and in safari, its not able to find your stylesheet. probably because this is what you have

   <link rel="stylesheet" href="http:/wp-content/themes/bluecheck/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />

   take out the http: so it looks like this

   <link rel="stylesheet" href="/wp-content/themes/bluecheck/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />

   Thanks so much, boober! That was the problem. I can't believe I missed it. What a relief to have it normal again. :)

   Thanks a million,
   P
