Quick synopsis: in Safari 2, IIRC, it contained a limit of something  
like 100 JS stack calls before it would bork out.  It is trivial to  
get to 100 stack calls when using a OO-library like prototypejs, since  
everything is wrapped inside of something else.  We had to disable  
displaying things ondomload since the mechanism to handle it properly  
required quite a bit of recursion, and this recursion would crash the  
browser.  (all other browsers have stack limits into the 1000's)

If this indeed still the problem in Safari 3, and this is either not a  
bug in our code or a misconfiguration, then Safari is useless as a  
modern browser.  I don't know for sure because I can't test Safari 3  
because it refuses to display any page after the login page because my  
server is https (I think... the error message is less than helpful).   
I will give Apple's marketing team credit though - it is the fastest  
browser... to display an error message.
