First, I agree, probably JS errors--Safari gives no feedback when a script
fails--there IS a trace-type "debugger" that is available from a Unix shell,
but am away from my desk and don't have a finger on it--search around and you
will find a way to at least get some feedback on failures in your Safari
scripts through this extension.

Also, www.quirksmode.org was my best resource when I needed to make a heavy
DHTML application targeted at IE5.5+ work on Safari. I succeeded but would
warn you that you might need to go to direct DOM manipulation over innerHTML
pokes in some cases.
