Word MVP site in Safari

J

Jan Martel

Is it just me, or is there something wrong with the Word MVPs site
(mvps.org) when viewed in Safari? I went there to look for articles on
Styles, after reading John McGhie's comment here that he prefers basing new
styles on "no style" instead of on "normal." In Safari, I got the MVPs home
page, but every other page I tried to get showed up blank, except for a
bottom line border that said: "Send all feedback to (e-mail address removed)" then some
space, then "Top ctrl+home" then more space and "Previously alt+left arrow"
more space and then the piéce de resistance: "Page updated: Wed Dec 31 2069,
4:00pm" ! To see whether the problem was the site or Safari, I tried IE,
where I can look at all the pages on the site just fine, and they have more
reasonable update dates. So obviously it's a problem with the site and
Safari (going to IE reminded me how much faster Safari is!). I discovered
that Safari no longer seems to have the "bug report" feature (guess that's
what happens when it's no longer beta) so I'm not sure where to report this,
but I thought before trying to figure that out I'd see if other people had
the same problem.

wonderful people :)

I've just replicated that - but I found that if I hit reload, the
page usually shows up. Strange...

Thanks! I don't know how I missed it (looking for the cute icon of the bug,
I guess). I've sent this in.
