Every time you open Safari and use it for Pogo, you have to do the Develop\User Agent thing.

To recap:
Safari users need to have "DEVELOP" active* on their menu bar. The menu bar is the "FILE EDIT VIEW HISTORY BOOKMARKS" etc at the top of the window.

Click on the menu bar DEVELOP\USER AGENT\INTERNET EXPLORER 7.0.

By having SAFARI on USER AGENT - Internet Explorer 7.0, Safari "talks" to web sites as if it were running IE 7. This is what Pogo expects to see.

*If you do not see "DEVELOP" on your tool bar, you can place it there by clicking on the menu bar EDIT\USER PREFERENCES\ADVANCED\check box checked "Show Develop menu in menu bar"

OK, I got that to work, but now it says I don't have the correct version of Java and I can't find anything to tell me which is the correct version or where to find it.

It used to all be there working fine, I have no idea what happened.

This is where the problem comes in for me right now, Joe. There is no toolbar that has the edit preferences, file, view, or anything else on it.  I'll keep working on it.

Where do I find the "develop" settings?
In Safari, to get "develop" to show up on the menu, you need to go to
Edit\Preferences which opens a window, go to Advanced then click on the box "Show Develop menu in menu bar"

Then, you can use the Develop\User Agent thing I talked about. Works like a dream.

Do you have DEVELOP option utilized? If you do, then you can then choose
Develop>User Agent>Internet Explorer 7.0

It is not Safari that has the issue. It is that Pogo does not support Safari, so Safari "emulates" I.E. 7 or 8 and tricks stupid Pogo into thinking you are using the Microsoft product.

Take that Pogo! ass.gif

Safari was working great for me, then suddenly it wouldn't play Pogo without a Java update and some other plugin, which for whatever reason will not seem to install on my VISTA laptop.

I quit IE8 2 days after I installed it. And I will not upgrade until the issues are over.

I was having problems with IE8 locking up quite a bit so I uninstalled and went back to 7. I'll wait until they get some more bugs out of it.
