XDA Site Crashing Safari 4.1.3 - About xda-developers.com

Didn't know where to put this. I hope this is the right place.
Just an FYI. The XDA Site is crashing my Safari 4.1.3. I'm using an iMac G5 on OS X 10.4.11.
I have been surfing the site for a while now and just lately this has been occurring. Today is the worst. So bad the thought occurred to me that someone here may want to know.
Thanks!

10 June 2012:
I used an iPad at someone else's house today to try to access this site and it crashed Safari on it.

The ads on the xda developers website are a big problem, you cant get on it with a mobile browser it forwards to an AD page...

It didn't on my iPod. But on my Xperia x8 it did

on Linux too
Firefox and opera on debian linux come up with a blank screen on some threads like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650541

not using it...

I was having a similar issue on my iPad (running 4.2.1), until I disabled JavaScript. Might give it a try on your end to see if it helps.

I figured it out.
I flushed my cookies and it worked
It seems to be caused by the setting the display mode to hybrid.

Browser question.

Longtime HTC sense user here and I'm missing a feature.. I really liked that when you clicked on a video it would ask if you wanted to watch online , or download.
Is there any way it could be added, or is there an app that does this.
(besides youtube download) I believe it worked for streaming mobile sites, not flash.

the new FireFox on Galaxy S3

So guys what do you think about the new firefox for Android running on Galaxy S3 !?
I saw it dramaticly smoothet than Google Chrome ( Specially in opening Desktop version websites ) & faster , and lets not forget it supports Flash but Chrome doesnt support it . Im using it as my primary Browser & Im loving it
( Dont forget to check the addons also , you can find useful stuff there )
So what do you think ?

The best browsers is ics browser + from the play store

Well, in my oppinion Stock Browser is smoother then Chrome and Firefox is smoother then Chrome too, but Stock Browser wins this round for me, but what keeps me away from Firefox is that there's no AdBlock extension yet and that Google looks like the one from 10 years ago, when i had Nokia 3310 >_> I have no idea why they dont change that, so that mobile would be recognized as "Android" and would display the correct Google site...

You have to download an addon and tell it how you wanna be interduced to the website ( as an iPhone , Android , iPad , PC or whatever )
ya stock browser is smooth but It doesnt have the smart zoom by double tappin and I dont like the fool animation of swiching between opened tabs delays your work and not handy ( the best tab swicher is on Chrome )

Just test FF and Chrome on xda dev site and FF feels definitely faster and smoother while panning around the page :thumbup:
I guess for me it is a personal preference i have all my bookmarks backed up to my gmail and Chrome restores them on my phone. So for me Chrome wins maybe ff will let me do that but can't be arsed..
The best is stock smooth as firefox and also has reflow of the text when you go onto readiablity mode and chrome and firefox both don't have

Agree. It's by far the best browser I've tried on Android. The quick controls are great.
Have any of you guys seen the m.gizmodo.com site on ff.
It doesn't display right... It looks right on Chrome and stock browser though.
Clearing cache or anything else doesn't help

I use the stock AOSP browser but I find myself using chrome from time to time when I need the sync feature.I wish chrome supported flash and full screen mode,wouldn't mind if it stayed relatively slow compared to stock browser.

i like chrome the most, if only it wasnt so slow and laggy

I put Boat Browser over all of the mentioned. In my opinion BB is totally underrated. It's fast, stable, has many features and even addons. The shortcuts for bookmarks on the start page are cool, too.

Try TubeMate. Here's their official website: tubemate.net
or maybe video tube downloader
Gesendet von meinem Nexus 4 mit Tapatalk 4
tube mate forced me to quite the browser i am in, copy paste the link into the program and then it will download that video.
tube downloader has a browser in the program it self. so i just go to any site i want, and as soon as the video starts playing, i get a "save" icon that with just one click, it will save automatically.
ive used tubmate on all my devices.. never had issue with it

like i said, tube mate is good for youtube. but not other sites. unless i am mistaken, it doesnt have a browser.. does it ?
Try OGYoutube. Its free and works better than tubemate.

Best browser for G3?

Hey guys, I have stopped using Chrome due to eating all my data all the time, what's the next best browser out there?
I loved the AOSP browser and it's quick controls. One finger browsing made easy.
Also lots of people are saying Dolphin is great. You should test them and judge yourself.
Is there any way to make the stock browser wrap so that you don't need to scroll right?
Opera has been my main browser for a few months, I can only recommend it
Great experience overall, even though it lacks a few extensions to be perfect, in my opinion.
Dolphin Jetpac for me :thumbup:

i use chrome because it connects my history and bookmarks with all of my other devices, computer and laptops. but my next choice would be AOSP. clean, fast and easy to use
I use BoatBrowser since my last 3 devices!!

Boat browser tablet! Wish we could enable under the split screen though?
Maxthon Browser wie auf dem SGS3 was ich vorher hatte. Ist sehr schnell und anpassungsfähig.
