Safari "Can't find variable: AW"

I am trying to make 2.5 work in Safari, but it is giving me the error "Can't find variable: AW". The same page works fine in IE and in FireFox.

Does anyone know what would cause this?

I guess safari cannot load aw.js script for some reason. Do you have the standard examples working? Can you see the grid on this page -
http://www.activewidgets.com/grid/ ? Which version of safari/os?

The examples are working fine for me in Safari. I'm using v3.0.4. It just seems to be the page I built, which I created after looking at the example page code.

Here is my code if it helps:

I cannot reproduce this - this page works fine for me. Could it be some issue with caching or server config or maybe path to aw.js?

Any idea what kind of server config problems might be the cause?

I've cleared the cache and tripple checked the path to aw.js and still see the same results. Works fin in IE and Firefox, but not in Safari.

Alex,

I just looked at my servers config file and found that all .js files were being run through the PHP engine when requested by the client browser. I dont quite understand why it worked in IE and Firefox and not Safari, but keep that in mind if someone else comes up with the same issue.
