Well, this is on my Mac mini here using a wired keyboard. I don’t have a trackpad here either, just the keyboard. I went back and tried some of the other suggestions. No joy on any of it (including option command F5). This appears to be a problem on googles end with some non-standard java code running. I have found the same situation on sites that use rafflecopter for their giveaways. It’s bad when even the webpages on the iPhone render the same way and have the same (virtually identical) problem as my Mac mini.
