Website picures and links not rendering in Safari

Question

Website picures and links not rendering in Safari

My website renders correctly in all browsers except safari but I cannot understand why. Through out the site random parts fail to load but when you refresh either the page then loads correctly or other elements load incorrectly. This is really random. There is a link to the site below and by clicking around the categories you should be able to see what I mean.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Yep. Very odd behavior.
I looked for a common factor in the .js files but couldn't fine any errors or omissions. The pages load very fast and the Safari "Activity Window" shows all of the page elements even if they do not display.
It doesn't get a "file not found" error even that is what some of the pages should show when an image fails to load.
I would contact the serving host and see if they have some answers (they may not even know about Safari). If anyone could give an answer it should be them.

Thanks for trying, server hosts do not have a clue so I am here as a last resort neither of us can find anything to correct this.

Some of the images don't render in Safari, hitting refresh renders them. In Firefox and Camino the images render. But, in all three browser it seems that the images render slowly for the images file size. Server???

Hi Mark

on Safari 2.0.4 with Tiger, when the image hasn't loaded, the activity window shows a "too many http redirects" error message.

EDIT - Whilst I am certainly just blundering in the dark a bit, some brief research shows that Safari can be more prone to these errors, and that often, changing the Browser User Agent makes the error go away, which is no help directly to you. Soo, a thought anyway, your page uses some javascripts hosted on another site eg http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.3.1/build/event/event-min.js - If it's easy for you to copy these to the same server as the rest of the page/images - I'd give it a try.

I see that too Andy.

I loaded two of the pages on my sever, Woman and (Home»Designer Boutique») Alchem1st. Those pages loaded with no error. And in Safari those two pages loaded very fast.

The OP could use Camino to save a page and then upload that to his/her server. This will all so pull the javascript files from the other sites. Anything worth a try.
