My Safari Error List

Let's see, my list of gripes.

Just ran permission verify after latest update and had hundreds of errors strictly in Safari. Was able to repair them.

.Tiff files show up as blank white pages.

My RSS feeds display i's as the letter L.

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.7)

Hi,

My web site is coded in UTF-8 and I left it that way when doing some checking a while back.

I use Firefox for everyday use.

Hi David,

I have seen Fluid and "Flowing" used to describe it.

Terminology did not seem important when I was posting earlier.

Edit
Non Fluid page with interesting iChat Logo (Scroll the page)
There is a wide enough margin that Text does not butt up to the edge if the Window is narrowed.

One would use UTF-8 encoding because it can render text and glyphs in virtually any language, and in multiple languages on a single page, without the need to change settings. Latin encoding isn't able to do this which is why it displays gibberish in those situations.

Preset text I have set up for instance

Example below
I would also try a PRAM reset.
Shut down the computer.
Restart it holding down APPLE(or ⌘) ALT+PR Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.

End Example

This text uses the HTML Codes for these two symbols was where as this Web Site tends to handle them as most people who come here have the Fonts the Boards use.

OK, try this one.

I go out to Yahoo Finance:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=%5EDJT

I click on "Interactive Chart," the browser starts getting unstable.

I input a custom date range.

I then try to do a "compare" and the box pops up to select the comparison index. At that point my mouse disappears and I can't select anything...

Anyone else able to re-create that error?

Apparently 10.6.2 was supposed to fix duplicate fonts:

You should try updating to 10.5.8 and also ensure that you have latest security updates installed.

I'm actually using 10.6.2. I check for updates a couple of times a week and run permission checks then as well too.

Thanks though.

Yes, thanks, someone suggested the Font Book app yesterday. No problems found.

46r --
I know, but I still think it's a good idea.
Printers, scanners, new apps, etc. can (and do) add fonts.
I just like to check every so often.

When's the last time you emptied the Safari cache?

Well, nice to know your opinion.
Safari doesn't screw up mice, BTW.
We're just other Mac users here, helping each other.
We don't need attitude.

Installing new software rarely affects user files, which is where the
caches are...
