I'm getting consistent crashes of Safari (OS X 10.3.9, Safari 1.3.2 
v312.5) on a page with an absolutely positioned footer: 
<http://carbon.liquidweb.com/~shelbypr/upload_files.php>. The form on 
that page uses Javascript to hide file upload input fields unless 
selected from a select list. Troubleshooting reveals that removing the 
absolutely positioned footer stops the crash. It's like Safari can't 
calculate where to put the footer with the Javascript function running 
on page load, which determines the height of the form and the 
relatively positioned parent of the absolutely positioned footer.

With an earlier version of this layout I also noticed that Safari 
wasn't able to position the footer correctly when clearing of floated 
elements changed the height of the relatively positioned parent of the 
footer.

I don't see any problems with Windows IE6, Firefox 1.5 on Windows or 
Mac. Mac IE5.2 is a disaster.

Anybody willing to test in the latest version of Safari? Anybody know 
of related general float clearing problems with Safari?
