I have found that Safari does a lot of things that no other browser does. Many things that work on Firefox, IE, Mozilla or any other browser do not work in Safari. I have Mac users also, I encourage them to use Firefox. No surprise that Safari doesnt work correctly. I would suggest Firefox for you apple users.
