I know this has been asked before but...

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

It doesnt really answer your question, but if you download the "Opera Mini" browser from the app store you will find the site is easy to navigate with no issues.
You can even add a little pictoral link to the Opera start page

As i said, it doesnt solve the safari issue, but does allow you to see and use the OG from an iphone
If you can download Firefox from www.mozilla.com then give it a go, if not then use Craig's suggestion above.

Well, there was this bloke called Pythagoras and then a bloke called Alexander Graham Bell and then a bloke called Babbage and then someone invented the transistor and then the microchip and by the late 1960's American defence computers talked to each other via phone lines. This technology was taken up by academic institutions in a system called JANET and was seen in such early 80's films as "War Games". You may remember at school having a computer that had a modem that could talk to a computer in the next room?

Anyway, by early 90's the http:// was invented and a bloke called Berners-Lee and ...

oh...forget it,

you are an old fogey!
