Description
When a users navigates from link to link in the navigation tree a white header appears at the top of the page. This can be fixed with a page refresh. I had a fix for this a while back but it broke Safari. The fix is a follows:
#history-frame{
display: none;
}
I've tested this fix on Safari Beta 3 on Windows and it seems to work well. I need to have a mac person try this fix out by adding the above line to any ICEfaces application css. If I remember correctly, the css managed to mess up dom updates.
If the fix work then we need to either update the default history-frame iframe style attribute with this additional one. If it doesn't work on Safari then the fix would be best applied to only ie 7 using our outputStyle component.

After a little testing there is still an issue with the old version of Safari. The display: none; does indeed cause an assortment JavaScript errors.
As a result the only work around is to apply the outputStyle component:
<ice:outputStyle href="css/showcase_style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
and create a new showcase_style_ie7.css sheet with the css fix. This fix should also be applied to the .org site.
Actually until this is done I'll leave the bug open.
Instead of forcing people to adjust the visibility of this iframe in their application CSS, we should modify the bridge that inserts this iframe to add the necessary css as well:
For non-Safari browsers:
display: none;
For Safari browsers:
visible: false;
The magic incantation is ... 'postion: absolute;'. This CSS rule takes the iframe out of the CSS flow thus the page header is not affected anymore.
Ted could you add the above css to an ICEfaces application of your choice and see if it causes and strange behavior in Safari on OSX?
