I'm tempted by the idea of a UR for everything but the TiVo, but it'd just be worse when I lose it.
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Crap. Why does my iBook suddenly say "No battery available"? (It's running off the adaptor, but it's as if it doesn't see the battery anymore.)
eta: Weird. Despite being connected to the adaptor, the battery ran down to 0%. I shut down, removed the battery and reinstalled it, rebooted and now it's charging. I'm already at 0.3%.
eta²: Ok, now all of a sudden the battery is at 100%. Somethin' ain't right here....

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am using Safari Version 2.0 (412.2) on a Mac with OS 10.4.2, and trying to sign on to a site that requires a subscriber login. I'm getting a notice that the site had detected that my javascript is disabled, and I can't log in as a result. I have looked in my preferences, and both java and javascript are enabled.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the site to "see" my javascript?

What's the URL?
I'm gonna make a wild guess and say that maybe the site uses some Javascript as a test to see if Javascript works. Maybe the test is failing for reasons other than Javascript beind disabled.

I have the same version of Safari and OS X as you, and I have the same problem.
I was right - the page uses Javascript to remove that "We have detected that your browser’s Java Script is disabled." message and replace it with the actual login thing. I'm not sure why this is not working for Safari.
This is the Javascript bit that replaces the message (in case anyone else has any ideas):
<script language="JavaScript">
top.IFRAME_LOGIN.location.href="some url";
</script>

It worked once, but the first few times I tried, it just opened up a blank page.
