I've had a similar problem with Safari. I found that if I don't wrap the HTML in a tag, then safari will crash...
soooo, something like: $("#element").html("some text"); will crash safari but the following will not: $("#element").html("<span>some text</span>"); Hope this helps :) On Sep 13, 3:55 am, PED <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I commented out and stepped through the code to find the problem: > > This line crashes Safari 2.0.4 > $('#main_image .caption').html(caption).fadeIn(); > > This does not. > $('#main_image .caption').text(caption).fadeIn();
