Confirmed as an evangelism bug. The reported site uses outdated HTML editor FreeTextBox [http://freetextbox.com/]. The newest version of FreeTextBox 3.2.1 supports Safari http://freetextbox.com/download/changelog.aspx Developers of this forum should update HTML editor to this version.

Spoofing User Agent as Firefox fixes the reported issue.
