Pops up a message on the page that says to enable javascript, which is already enabled by default - at least in my preferences it is.

edit: well, after you let it sit there and spin and spin for about 3 minutes - then it opens a page that works - going back to test again.

edit2: actually only 1 minute as I timed it. Tried saving a new bookmark on the page that works and does the same thing. Opens up to a page that says enable java... input some text and click - it spins for at least a minute, then gives me a page that works.

Works fine here. Not that you probably haven't thought of this already but have you tried resetting Safari? With JS enabled, it loads fine here for me. In fact, even with JS disabled it still loads fine.

No problem buddy. What still boggles me is why you're getting a JS error with it enabled. Perhaps something gets screwed up with the upgrade.

Yep, i did a reset earlier today and that did the trick... Just hadn't been here since this morning. It'd probably been at least 4-5 months since I last reset it also.
