(Update - What an Idiot I am. I applied the fix Tech Support told me about, asked y'all to look at it, BUT I FORGOT TO UPLOAD THE FIX. PLEASE TRY AGAIN. How dumb can I be????)
(original message below)
I got my web site up and running last week, but several Mac users with the Safari Browser reported they were unable to vertically scroll.
If you're using the Safari browser, would you please take a look at my website and see if it's now working? I have altered the code in the header according to the advice I got from the Technical Support people, but not using a Mac myself, I have no way of checking it.
Caution - I only changed the main pages so far. Didn't want to change all 100+ pages just to find out it doesn't work!

Bill, unfortunatly it still looks broken to me. While in Firefox on the mac it looks great. There are a few other problems in Safari as well such as text on the top of the images on the gallery page are wraping and overwriting the thumb sized images a little (the Beach/Dune Scenes) label, etc.
I was using Safari 1.3 (v312). Which might be old.
Anyone else say with OSX Tiger want to try it out?

Thanks Timothy - I'll go back to Tech Support once again. I'm becoming good friends with those guys unfortunately!

Works beautifully now (and it did not when I last checked, so it seem you fixed it).

One more comment: I think the jpeg compression you apply is too much. I see artefacts in almost every image. Sometimes it doesn't hurt, but sometimes, it really detracts from the image (bald eagle shot).
I'm using Safari in OSX 10.3 and can scroll okay. Can't wait 'til you fix more pages. Your photography is beautiful.

Scrolling is good under OS 10.4.7 Safari. On the Fine Art Print page your name and address sits on top of the text below the price list.

Thanks everybody for your help. One problem down, a few more still waiting.
Basil, I don't understand the artifact problem. I have noticed it myself on a couple of images, but not on most. There are NO artifacts on the original jpeg's, but they somehow appear after I insert the images into the web page and upload unto the web. That's my next issue to attack. Thanks for letting me know about it.
