I've never encountered this, and

does not seem to allow you to use the drop down menus for entering

Just tried it it worked fine for me. Though if it's the only way
for you to enter dates, we may be looking at different pages; on the
page I tested, you can also click on the little calendar icon to the
right of the date, and then click on a date in the pop-up calendar.
That also worked for me.
I'm using 10.4.3 with the latest Safari. So I don't think Safari is
the problem here (or at least the only problem). In fact, Safari
fails to work so rarely that I don't even remember the last time it
failed. Oh, except it and the Mozilla-based browsers all used to
give a java error when I tried to refill pr*scr*pt**ns at my
insurer's online ph**m*cy, but that's been fixed.
(In Safari I have the debug menu activated, and the user agent
automatically chosen; I may once or twice have changed it to IE for
a site.)

you need a 3rd party utility like Safari Enhancer or Onyx both are available through Versiontracker.com John P.S. Amber, it was with Safari 10.4.3.
