Critical correction:
There should be a space before the digits "1" and "0" in order to
activate/deactivate the Debug menu in Safari through the Terminal.
To activate, quit Safari, go to Terminal and type this command, then
hit Return to activate:
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1
To deactivate, quit Safari, go to Terminal and type this command,
then hit Return to deactivate Debug:
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 0
Hope this helps.

Hi Amber:
I've noticed that Safari support has improved overall. But there
are times when it just doesn't get the results that I need. Much
of it has to do with the designs of the web pages, which may or may
not have an effect upon what you are trying to do.
However, Apple has an interest gem in the Debug menu. Quit Safari
and open Terminal (Library > Application Support) and type in the
following:
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu1
and press return.
Relaunching Safari gives you a new menu choice, Debug. It has a
plethora of cool functions. Select in the Debug menu User Agent,
and you can choose from a list of browsers, which includes
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 (MSIE). Keep in mind that you are
not using MSIE, but allowing Safari to receive certain information
that would only be exchanged if the web browser "identifies" itself
as MSIE.
If you implement this option, it may prove two things. If it does
work when Safari identifies itself as another browser, it will
prove that eBay's web design is not too Mac friendly. If it
doesn't work, then Safari may need some modifications that may come
in the future or you should consider not checking the box to keep
you logged in.
If you change your mind about the Debug menu, quit Safari, open
Terminal and type the following:
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu0
and press return.
Relaunch Safari, and the Debug menu should be gone.
Good luck.
