I have a MacBook Pro, 15", High Sierra, 2.5 GHz Intel Core 7, 6GB R33 MHz DDR3. I'm using Safari 12.1.1 and keep getting an error message when clicking on web page links that says "Safari can't open the page." It doesn't always happen but it happens enough to be frustrating. Any ideas? Thanks.

You're using the latest version of Safari so there should be no problem with it being out of date or secure. Have you tried another browser to see if the page you're having difficulty with can be opened? I have received that same message on occassion with various web sites but usually after a second or third try, the page will open. Could be a temporary glitch with the site itself.

Also, I moved your post here to the correct forum.

Sorry about the forum flub and thank you for responding. These weak links seem to come with advertisements, I'll keep looking for a work around.

It would help if you gave us a link to the page that won't open along with the exact error message.

Unfortunately, he error message isn’t real helpful: just that Safari can’t connect to the server.
