Not a techie, so I haven't been able to identify properly, but I've had a nightmarish time trying to configure my drupal installation - seems to be subject to random crashes when I'm updating or deleting items via the admin interface. I'm working with Safari 2.0 on Tiger (10.4.1) with Drupal 4.6.0. Anyone noticed any similar issues?

What theme are you using?

I was using Kubrick. Did a complete reinstall from scratch - seemed to take care of the issues. Then I went back to using Kubrick and Safari crashed again, in a completely random way - no warning, no special function, I was just moving from one page to another in the admin section...

Project: Drupal core » Kubrick
Version: 4.6.0 »
Component: base system » Code

This is a Kubrick problem then. I use Drupal without problem with Safari daily. Reassigning to Kubrick.

I have used Kubrick successfully on Safari before (with Drupal 4.5), and the code did not change at all for 4.6. Can someone confirm this problem?

Using Kubrick with the latest 4.6 version of Drupal works fine except for when using the Statistics module. If I try to view referrers Safari (OS X 10.4.1) crashes. Every time. Doesn't crash if I try to view referrers using any of the stock themes.

It's still happening. It moves around, too. It used to happen on the main page. Lately, it has been happening when I try to use the theme editor. I have seen application crashes that take a while to happen, so it could be something entirely different setting it off. I've sent a crash report to Apple in case it's a problem in the browser.

I can confirm that this is still happening. 10.4.2 (Safari v412.5) and Drupal 4.6. Happens at undefined places too...unknown what is causing it to crash.

This is also happening with my site...I am not sure why or where, although it seems to be centered around at least the album.module. This is the only module I have clicked on so far causing safari to crash. Send me a message if you need crash logs or other info

Please help! Thanks!

I have no access to Safari anymore, so any help to pin point this problem will be very welcomed. I've tried searching around, but can't find any CSS problem that cause Safari to just crash. (I'm assuming it's CSS problem because the html validates)

I plan to re-do Kubrick code once the 4.7 code freeze happen.

thanks for the interest in this...I would love to help us all determine the problem. I have done some revisions to the css for kubrick...what are some ways to check the css to see if this is a problem. I can modify, but know little about bug tracking.

It seems to be a css think. Try to do this.
Find and replace this code on the style.css file inside theme/kubrick

#primarylink .active {
	border-bottom: 4px solid white;
}
#primarylink :hover {
	text-decoration: none;
}

with:

#primarylink a.active {
	border-bottom: 4px solid white;
}
#primarylink a:hover {
	text-decoration: none;
}

It works for me; Even if I didn't test it for hours.

(The only reason I can guess for this is that the hover function without the a before interferred with hyperlinks other than the primary. Infact my side menu didn't work correctly before (link text used to slip down on mouse hover).

I hope this will help you and sorry for my bad english.

With previous comment suggested change the active link didn't work correctly. Try this:

Find and replace this code on the style.css file inside theme/kubrick

#primarylink .active {
border-bottom: 4px solid white;
}
#primarylink :hover {
text-decoration: none;
}

with:

#primarylink li a.active {
border-bottom: 4px solid white;
}
#primarylink li a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
}

I'm also seeing frequent/random crashing of Safari 2.0.3 in OS 10.4.6, on a Drupal 4.6 site with Kubrick.
Will try the css fix suggested.

All my crashes look like this in the crashlog, fwiw:

Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x0000001c
