Why has it started doing this (see picture)? I'm sure it didn't yesterday even though the same topics were in the list!

 

As ever, I'm on my Mac, Mac OS X and Safari. Is it just Safari that this website doesn't want to work for? I seem to be the only one with these problems!

Firefox and Internet Explorer are fine, I've had no problems like that.

I think I've worked out the problem....

...You listened to the advertising and decided to put you apples in Steve Jobs basket (forgive the terrible, and semi-intentional pun)

Don't listen to them. Mac's are not the best thing ever. They just want you to think that...

I'll throw the windows version of safari on my vista box and see if the problem is reproducible.

Anyone know of a firebug equivalent for safari?

It's done it again for me, on my mac again (safari et al).

And no, I'm not giving up my shiny mac!

This looks to be a people not using spaces issue. Our design team and the drupal community cannot be responsible for the misuses of language and punctuation

I had a feeling it was something to do with long words/strings that couldn't be broken up properly.
