Well, it seems like nothing is working on this browser anymore..

I previously tried to run my b4j app in it, dololo. Visiting b4x yielded something else too. Is there a setting that I should set for this to work?

I mean other browsers are not coming up with issues?

You realize that Apple has not supported Safari on Windows since circa 2012? I think the last "proper" version was 5.1.7? (https://appleinsider.com/articles/12/07/25/apple_kills_windows_pc_support_in_safari_60)

If it were me, I'd just check the browser the user is on, if its Safari, then just point them to the Google Chrome download.

If Apple cannot be bothered, then dont sweat about it!

My 2p and all that!

You also need to check the OS, since Safari on Apple products should be fine. It's only the Windows version that's stuck in the past (and version's running on older Apple hardware that is not receiving anymore updates).

I agree with @Dabzy1978, he lives in the city with the 3rd oldest university in England, after Oxford and Cambridge
