Safari 5 page bugs

Hi! I'm not sure if this is just an issue with my computer of if it's a global one but I've noticed some odd issues when browsing the site using Safari 5.
At certain points, the styling will be lost and all that will be displayed is a white page and some of the header.
For example, if you look at
this page
in Safari it looks like
this
and you loose all the tabs and forms. It doesn't happen in Firefox, however, and the page appears normally. I've also noticed that it happens on the log-in page too (but not the log-out page).

That's happened to a few random pages on Chrome as well today.

Actually Firefox works just fine for me (without clearing my cache) but the Safari problem still remains (I did clear the cache today) :3

Yeah, it's a certification issue. We're working on it, but if you hard refresh (ctrl-F5) you should be able to get the full CSS—at least in Chrome.

Still in progress.

This SHOULD be working properly now. Anyone still having issues?

Hm, weird.
It wasn't working initially so I went in to Window -> Activity and it showed an error message for some of the files stating that "The certificate is not valid" (I don't have the exact wording).
I tried clearing the cache and restarting but it didn't work so I ended up double-clicking on the error message thinking I could see more but, instead, it ended up loading the page (the css page from the secure static.wowhead.com).
I was prompted about the certificate (Show Certificate/Cancel/Continue). Hitting Continue let me proceed and view the page. I went back and loaded the sign in page and everything worked correctly. The only thing is that it doesn't persist when you close the browser - if I reopen it, I have to go back in to Window -> Activity and access the CSS page directly again before it works. I can't find an option in Safari to prompt me when I view secure pages, either.
Hopefully that makes sense! I can take screen shots, if it helps!
Edit: Here's the error console log, if that helps (just one line since it messes up the formatting with more but you get the idea):
Failed to load resource: The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be “static.wowhead.com” which could put your confidential information at risk.

: I assume you're using Safari in OS X? Safari works just fine for me in Windows 7 on secure pages but when I load in OS X I see the lack of styling to which you refer.
Firefox and Chrome work just fine on those pages in OS X, and everything seems to work fine in Windows.
This is... special.

FWIW: I think you can double-click the part about the failure to load the resource, view the certificate, then check the 'always trust *.wowhead.com" box. I would verify but I want to keep it broken in my browser while we try to figure out why only one flavor of Safari doesn't "trust" DigiCert.

Oh, sorry! I missed this reply :)
I was on OS X. It's weird because I don't even see an option in preferences to control viewing a pop-up or something asking if you want to view this certificate. I wonder why there's not a pop-up window when you view a page with an error like that. That is strange. The "always trust" checkbox worked fine, though!
I wish I still had access to Safari 4 to see if it was any different.
Sorry for being a pain! ;D I just wanted to make sure it was working! ^_^

This is fixed. Turned out to be some weirdness with how Safari + OS X interpreted our certificate. We made a tweak and now the browser registers our certificate correctly.
