Xbox.com doesn't work with Safari... why?

[ebally]

For the last few days I have been trying to access Microsoft's Xbox website, but I keep getting server not found.

But the strangest thing is that it works perfectly well with Camino and Firefox broswers.

How come the website works with some browsers and not others?

Works for me in Safari.

Try this one:

WHAT!?

It doesn't work for me in Safari 2.0.2 and Internet Explorer 5.2 (OS Tiger 10.4.3).

Works fine on my iBook (Mac OS X 10.4.3) in both Safari 2.0.2 and Firefox 1.5...

Maybe it's time for some mumbo jumbo™?

Well, you should just trash IE right now.. but the site I linked above works just fine in the latest Safari.

The US one works fine for me. The UK one is a little screwy though. Anyone else see this (page not found):

Edit: I'm not sure it is the actual UK one?

Yes.. Their "webmasters" should be commended.

I think you have typed the URL wrong for the UK site, it should be http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/

Is there a way to force refresh a webpage in safari? As this is what I get when I visit the site:

I assume Grapes made the same leap of logic as I did and change the "en-US" (english US) to "en-UK" (english UK). Shocker that it's non-functional and doesn't point to the proper page.

As for what you're seeing, have you cleared your Safari cache?

Thank you. It finally works... (and it was not some big conspiracy on Microsoft behalf, like I originally thought).

Works fine for me...
I'm so glad they've redesigned the whole site. The old design was nasty!

the old one may have been nasty, but is this one really that much better
