Q: Safari Issues with 9.1.2 update

I am operating on a macbook pro 2013 OSX 10.9.5 with Safari 9.1.2. Since the latest update some websites keep telling me javascript needs to be enabled (it is in preferences and develop menus) and google search reverts back to old layout. If I reset safari it is ok for a short time then the glitchy behaviour reappears... Tried disabling extensions... no change.. I have a TM backup from before the updates that I can revert to but will probably face the same update issue...

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

    Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items.  Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Clear History…. The down side is it clears all cookies. Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library./Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db and move it to the trash.
