Using Safari 6.0 (8536.25).

This “bug” does not present in Firefox, or Chrome, only in Safari.

I am seeing a very strange color (cannot determine if this is a css background color, a css selection color, or something OS related) on my navigation. This only happens in Safari, and it seems to be “consistent” in that the “color” always appears in the same area.

I can’t pinpoint where this is coming from via the Web Inspector.

Here is the url: http://project1989.com/development/RAD/

Also, here is a Screenshot in case noone else sees the “bug”.

Safari: http://cl.ly/image/1c0b2T380v1C

Can anyone else re-produce this bug, and/or give any insight into what’s causing it?

I wrote all the css myself, so I’m puzzled as to where it comes from, I can confirm that before upgrading to Safari 6.0, everything worked fine.

Thanks!

PS, I deleted these lines from my css, because I thought they were causing the issue, but it didn’t fix anything. These are in my css however-

::selection {
    background: #04C4FB; /* Safari */
}

::-moz-selection {
    background: #04C4FB; /* Firefox */
}

    This seems to be related to a bug I reported regarding colour treatment in Safari 6. It only occurs on some systems, which is why this is tricky to reproduce. For example, I don’t see this on my MacBook Air, but my old MacBook Pro (running the same build) shows the issue.

    Since it’s a rendering bug, as of right now, there is no workaround, as far as I can figure out.
