Turns out it was a nested layer bug -- Safari wouldn't unhide a layer using JavaScript, if the parent layer was still set to be hidden. To get around it, I unnested the layers.

Thanks for the idea to change the close link, too.

At 2005/09/27, Christian Heilmann Said unto me:

My guess is positioned layer and object. Always a tricky bit. By the
way "close window" is not appropriate, as it is not a window. "close
player" makes more sense.



 I've got an odd behavior in Safari that has me stumped.

 http://www.unsoundtracks.com/classical.html

 In Firefox, when you click on a link that says "Play," a layer is
 displayed that has a description of the file, and a little QuickTime
 widget that plays an MP3.

 In Safari, however...
 o sometimes the QuickTime widget doesn't appear
 o sometimes the QuickTime widget appears but the surrounding layer doesn't

 If you click on the "Buy" link first, then click on the "Play" link,
 the "Play" layer seems to display just fine.

 I know the page is a tricky mix of JavaScript and CSS, but it
 basically validates, and I'm stumped.  Is this some Safari bug that
 has a workaround?
