For the record this bug also affects Konqueror 3.5.7 (as it shares the same rendering engine as earlier Safaris).

Making the CSS inline doesn't work though. You need to not hide the form and position a layer over the top.

I was having the same issue until I read this. I also have some other advice for you.

You don't need to use relative positioning. Just make sure that you use inline CSS in the element that you've been hiding to show that visibility: inherit.

It acts a little nicer when you do that. At least for Safari for Windows.

I was reading your SAFARI and PHP solution, thanks, I will investigate this. My web site, when the users submit or calculate their forms get a “not a number” error message when they swear they are putting in values. Does not happen with firefox on the MAC.
Have a look at the site, vote and tell everyone you know to get the vote out!
(Assuming you live in the USA)
Thanks again!

I got the Same problem
was working fine with IE 5.5 and 6,
Firefox was sending the form , at least in parts , but the files were not uploaded by Firefox.

After reading this article i found that:

I usually put my forms , in between table cell or rows, That was preventing some problem with multiple forms , and the way the browsers display them, something they were acting like instead of being seamless.

Firefox doesnt like’s the forms to be “not shown” i mean that , even if it is there in the page, and it properties are the basic one,
the was in between a table cell , usually nothing goes there.
but it was beeing used correctly by explorer.
and the were in the table cell so they can be seen

and i had no problem with form having a style of theire own.

after reading this , i moved the in a normal place eg: in

instead of

this way firefox , send the whole and the uploaded files correctly

As I’ve run into the same right now …
yes, it happens also if you just hide it through visibility.

Just wondering, did the bug also exist if you made the form invisible (as opposed to hidden) ?
CSS:
visibility=hidden;

I don’t have Safari to test on.
