Safari Problem...
When clicking on various URL's in Google the blue horizontal thermometer that
illustrates the loading of
a web-page gets stuck and a pop-up warning appears that states "Safari can't
find the server". I then
close the pop-up warning and click the same URL again a second time and the
web-page then loads
just fine.
I have tried "Reseting Safari" from the Safari menu--which deletes browsing
history, empties the cache,
clears download window, and removes cookies---but I still have the page loading
problem. Is this
problem endemic to Safari or is there a solution that I have overlooked. I am
using......
iMac G5
Mac OS 10.3.5
Safari 1.2.3 (v 125.9)
Any suggestion would be appreciated!!

Could be that your ISP doesn't have that url already loaded in its
proxy/cache and has to fetch the data.
Does it happen when you browse to apple.com?

Hello Paul... Just tried browsing "www.apple.com" and Safari works perfectly
with just one mouse click.
That is odd because when I browse google and other sites it requires a second
double click to load the
page. What could be the problem ??

Hi John,
Been having this problem on Safari on two machines for ages - seems to
be a DNS issue (we run our own DNS server), but IE, Mail, Eudora et al
are all quite happy to access first time every time, so that seems to
rule that out.
MacFixIt has covered the issue a few times over the last few months -
most recently today in relation to the problem appearing for some people
after the most recent Security Update. They ask whether it might be
things like incomplete URLs (missing the www. and .com, or the trailing
slash), but they haven't found any real clues as to the real cause as
yet. I've not seen any pattern here, either.
Regards
Sean

There's a new Safari in 10.3.6 (version 1.2.4). The package is only at
dev stage, but you might want to check that out?
