I don't have safari to test on but konqueror 3.5.5 has the same problem until you remove position: relative from the #outer rule. Fortunately the only effect that seems to have in firefox is to lengthen the relative height of both #inner and its contents which is reasonably accounted for by adjusting #inner's height.
Your original link seems to have done basically that since it looks the same in firefox and konqueror to me. I've seen complaints about position: relative in safari before but this is quite a dramatic failure since the majority of the remaining css is completely ignored (although strangely some of it is still being used).
