Safari fails to open submenu items on some websites. Example, on Schwab.com, select a stock then try to open reports. Get message, "Too many redirects occurred trying to open..." Multiple submenu choices get this same message. I saw some old discussions on this board, but no solution. These menu options were available in the past on Safari, but I see some were having similar problems as long ago as 2005.

Ultimately, Safari only does what the remote server tells it to - if page A says redirect to page B, and page B says redirect to page A, then it's not exactly Safari's fault.
The other consideration is popups - I've seen other cases where a link tries to open a popup window, which is blocked by Safari preferences, so it tries again, and Safari interprets this as a circular reference.
Check Safari preferences to allow popups temporarily, to see if that solves the problem. If it is the issue then we can craft a solution.

Thank you. That was helpful. Follow up…when I look for pop-ups in the preference menu, it’s not there. Directions say be sure to scroll down to the bottom of the left menu, which I did, but no option for pop-ups.
Too Many Redirects...Safari Problem?
