    Hi Everyone,

    Sorry to be a pest, but I’m having a whole load of trouble with my website.

    http://www.mysteriousal.com

    It’s a largely flash based site, that runs fine on any PC. However, I’m having lots of reports from Mac users (and having the same problem myself on my DP 2.0 G5), Using Safari and Firefox.

    What happens is, uite simply, the website locks up Safari or Firefox. It must be flash causing the problem as the movies freeze, and will only play when the mouse button is held down.

    Nothing is clickable, and users have to force quit.

    The site will run perfectly on IE on a mac…. But I really want it to work on everything…

    I’ve had problems on everything from a Mac Mini, through to dual engine G5.

    I’m hoping that some of you will know more than I do on this matter and offer up any suggestions? I’m getting frustrated by my viewers having problems….

    Greatfully-

    deformed

    Runs fine on Safari 1.3 on a dual processor G4. I’m running OSX 10.3.9

    I noticed occasionally the links don’t have a finger, then I’ll mouse over again and they do. But they work either way.

    The “free tour” link didn’t work, but I was unclear if that was a link or the title to the pull down menu below it.

    Neat site btw.

    Cool… Thanks for taking the time to check it, man.

    I’ve concluded that this is a bug in Firefox…. Grrr…

    Thanks all the same 🙂
