I'm new to posting from an apple device, so I don't really know the first thing about what might be causing this. Every once in a while when I move between pages, whether it is clicking a link or pressing Submit for a post, I am whisked away to a blank white page containing a google banner ad such as might be shown in the upper right. I'm using OSX 10.8.2 on the latest Safari.

Same thing occasionally happens to me when posting on an Ipod touch.

If so, its a Safari issue, I believe.

Thanks filbert! I guess I'll either deal with it or switch back to firefox.

Yeah it is an apple bug. If you view a page with a # in the URL (mainly skipping to a post), and a javascript built iframe is on the page (google ads, facebook ads, etc), then safari screws up and loads the ad in the main page. Quite annoying but besides crafting a thing to block google ads on all apple devices, there is no real way around it that I am aware of. If anyone else knows of a workaround then I'm all ears, but dont own any apple devices that I can replicate it on. I have an ipad but have not had it happen on there.
