Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / March 2008Safari 3: problems with Gmail
Safari 3 has problems with the Gmail site: When I load the Gmail page with my e-mails it shows the number of unread e-mails in the title (e.g. Gmail - Inbox (4)), but that title message doesn't change after I've read all the e-mails. It's the same with Gmail chat: If my friend John says something then the page title becomes "John says ...", but that doesn't change later when *I* say something or when I close the conversation. Firefox doesn't have all these problems with Gmail titles. Is there a workaround for Safari? Thanks! Markus P.S.: I am using Safari Version 3.0.4 (5523.15) on Mac OS 10.5.2. > Safari 3 has problems with the Gmail site: When I load the Gmail page > with my e-mails it shows the number of unread e-mails in the title [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > P.S.: I am using Safari Version 3.0.4 (5523.15) on Mac OS 10.5.2. I've given up on Safari for Gmail. Firefox as you've noted works. So does Camino.

You're not alone. I've noted that after a while, Safari 3.0.4 will just stop responding to the javascript on the GMAIL page. The only solution I've found is to quit Safari and start it again. I also use Yahoo's email a lot for sending out anti-spam LART emails. That page's Compose and Check Mail buttons stop working after a while. Mostly, I think the multiple "y5beta=yes" strings in the URL are the problem. I clear them out, redisplay the page, and the it works again. You might also try using the HTML interface instead. For a while, Gmail just didn't work right with Safari (V2 or V3). It's gotten better, but I think there's bugs in the Javascript implementation. SignatureDeeDee, don't press that button! DeeDee! NO!

I do that and it works fine. |
