Some sites won't work with Safari. As I mentioned in my other message, the only ones I have had a problem with are certain secure sites (like banks). However I order a lot of items over the Internet from secure sites and haven't had any problem using Safari with them. When I have a problem (only two sites so far) I report them to Safari's bug line (the insect in the far right of Safari's menu bar-looks more like an ant to me, definitely not a bug. Actually itis either a spider missing a pair of legs or an insect missing it's thorax.)
