What is the issue with how the tabs display on Safari in Webflow?
When using Webflow to create websites with tabs, there have been reported issues with how these tabs display on Safari. The specific issue that arises is related to the use of the "flex" property in the custom code of the tabs component.
Here are the details of the issue with tabs on Safari in Webflow:
Display distortion: On Safari, the tabs may get distorted and not display correctly. This can result in misalignment, overlapping, or even disappearing of the tab elements.
Incorrect tab size: In some cases, the width or height of the tabs may differ from the intended design when viewed on Safari. This inconsistency can make the tabs look unprofessional or unreliable.
Text truncation: Another common issue is text truncation. Safari might cut off longer tab labels, making it difficult to read or understand the content of each tab.
Hover interaction problems: When hovering over a tab with certain effects applied, such as color change or underline, Safari may not always respond as intended. This can give a poor user experience and affect the overall functionality of the tabs.
To address these issues and ensure that the tabs display correctly on Safari, consider the following solutions:
Custom code adjustments: Check the custom code associated with the tabs component. The "flex" property in the code might need modification or removal to solve the display issues on Safari.
Responsive design: Make sure that the tabs component is designed and optimized for different screen sizes. Test the tabs on various Safari versions and devices to ensure proper display and functionality.
Safari-specific styling: Apply specific styles to the tabs or their container using conditional classes targeting Safari. This technique allows you to address Safari-specific issues without affecting other browsers.
Browser testing: Regularly test your website on Safari to identify any display issues with the tabs or other components. This will enable you to fix them promptly and provide a consistent experience for all users.
By following these suggestions, you can resolve the issues with how tabs display on Safari in Webflow, ensuring a seamless user experience across different browsers and devices.
