Safari v 5.1.2. Not happening in Firefox. Strange and very annoying.

Try updating your system software to v10.6.8


Click your Apple menu top left in your screen then from the drop down menu click Software Update...


If your software is already up to date, go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari


Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.


Try Safari.


~ (Tilde) character represents the Home folder.

Check Safari > Preferences - Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari to test.


If it's not an Extension causing the page issue, go to Safari > Preferences then select the security tab.


Deselect: Enable plug-ins


Quit then relaunch Safari. If pages don't "bounce" then you have a Safari third party add on installed that's causing the odd page behavior.

Bear in mind, it could be a plugin that does not affect Firefox.
