G'day everyone!
I have a site (not validated, not strict anything) which works just
fine in my browser (Opera for Windows) but a user recently complained
that none of the links work in Safari (Mac). If you have Safari, could
you please take a look to see if the links work, and if not, can you
speculate as to why not?
The URL is http://www.vertaal.org/spel/ .
Thanks!

The markup didn't look too bad. A couple things I saw:
You might want to put a line like this:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-
1">
in your <head>
This line:
<link href="../style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
-Why the trailing slash?
Why not "upgrade" to html 4.01?

Contrary to popular belief, it is believable.

Better to get the server to send a real HTTP header to that effect, for
which the meta tag is merely an inferior substitute.

Yes, but my thought was that the OP was perhaps having his trouble
simply because the line was missing under his current configuration.

Possibly they were having a problem with "URL: http://www.spel.co.za/"
(and others) which shows an URL string, but is not a link. You link on the
image but that is not at all obvious unless they happen to wave the mouse
over it.
