Safari displays my site terribly - safari

Im a new developer, and I just finished my first site. Works fine in all browsers, except safari.
Unfortunately I didn't install a copy of safari while I was developing it, so these issues went unnoticed. I did check every other large browser tho.
Figuring, if it worked in IE it should work in anything else...
Please open up www.enniya.net in safari, and than in chrome or some other browser to see what I am taking about.
By looking at it I do have a theory.
The background, font, colors, transparencies of divs, border colors, thats all their, but the positioning is destroyed.
But the logo position is correct, so my first theory is that
90% of the content is positioned with vw and vh
while the logo actually uses % for positioning...
Except that the latest readings tell me the newest versions of safari understand VH and VW ??? So I dont know.
If you need to see my code let me know, I didn't provide it initialy because Im not really sure what specifically I could provide that would solve this problem.

Icon font are rendered as squares on subsequent visits in Safari (iOS and OSX)

We're experiencing a weird problem with font icons. First couple of visit they load beautifully, but after a period of idle (usually around 24 hours) on subsequent visits they are replaced by squares. In Chrome, Firefox and even IE it works without problems.
When the problem is there I can see the CSS with the embedded font in the inspector but the font does not render. The CSS is cached and it feels like the font is evicted from the cache but never loaded again.
We have tried different ways of hosting, bootstrapcdn, our own CDN, and now fonticons.com. No real change. The really weird part is that the problem only arises after some time.
Anyone with a similar problem?

Bing map bug on Safari 7 (or Safari bug?)

I am displaying a set of properties on Bing map. It works all fine in Chrome, FireFox, IE, and Safari on Windows (version is 5.1.7 - their latest version for Windows). But it doesn't work in Safari 7 on Mac.
When displayed correctly, all properties are located on a green residential area. But on Safari 7, all properties are displayed on the far left of that area - on a totally wrong location. Also, the larger left part of the map is blank (there is no map!).
I saw a similar post Bing Maps Issue on Safari 7. The left part of their map is also blank. The problem there seems not solved. I followed Microsoft's guideline (meta, CSS position/width/height etc), none of them work.
I suspect that's a Bing bug? Or a Safari bug?
Sorry I don't have enough reputation to post images...
Now that I solve the problem, I confirm that this is NOT a bug of Safari or Bing.
the <div> that load the the map is embedded in many other divs, panels, fieldset, Telerik ajax panel, RadTabStrip etc. You have to remove some of divs, and also some styles of divs to make it work. It's tricky, you have to do many tests to finally pin down which element caused the problem and remove that element.
I took me several days to figure this out.

Bootstrap Inputs on safari 6 not right?

I'm having a problem with Twitter Bootstrap Inputs showing correctly on safari 6.0.
Im pretty sure this was fine before I moved to Mountain Lion, and it does seem to be an issue with Chrome.
Basically in Safari, the right end of the input seems cut off an is not displaying correctly. Ive taken a screen shot to demo what I mean...
Safari:
Chrome:
Any ideas?
EDIT: Just looking at the Twitter Bootstrap site and I see that alot of their inputs have the same problem!
Anyone else seeing this?
The artifact appears to be an issue with Safari's rendering of border-radius, and is not specific to Twitter Bootstrap. See rendering borders on Apple's support forum. The inputs usually render normally after you select them.
Disabling border-radius on the affected elements with the following two lines removes the artifact. Be careful though, sometimes this causes even more puzzling artifacts on nearby buttons.
-webkit-border-radius: 0;
border-radius: 0;

EasySlider 1.7 - IE9 breaks it by blocking scripts

I've been playing around with EasySlider and everything was working perfectly - until I viewed my site in IE9.
Instead of displaying the slider with 3 images sliding across, it displayed all 3 images sat one underneath the other, and a message at the bottom of the screen saying that scripts etc had been blocked and did I want to allow blocked content.
As I was using this in the hear of my website it pushed my whole site down the page and just looked stupid with the 3 banners on top of each other.
I realise I can get rid of this by unblocking the content, but that's not the point. I think this is the default security settings for IE so everyone that visits my site will see it like this for the first time (or everytime if they don't unblock the content).
So is there a way around this? Or at least a way that if the script is blocked only the first image is shown instead of all of them? This seems a pretty big flaw!
I had the same issue as you and found a very simple solution for it using CSS. All you need to do is copy and paste the line of CSS code below onto the screen.css stylesheet that came with the EasySlider 1.7 Plugin. I hope this helps.
#slider {
position:relative;
}
I found this solution at the "ClickNathan Handmade Websites".

Safari bad frames rendering

I didn't find any help on google, forums, etc...
thanks to any suggestion
Since I'm installing windows on my main Mac, I grabbed a really old laptop (Powerbook g3/safari4.04 on OS X 10.4.11) to test this and didn't get any white lines anywhere. What safari version are you using to test?
You may need to set some CSS padding/margin/border styles to "none" to have it work in older versions of Safari, but I've never seen this problem before.
