Reports are blank in Safari and Chrome

I migrated our reporting services from version 2008 to another server version 2008 R2. In version 2008 the reports work fine on Safari. The new version 2008 R2 the reports do not show up at all. All I see is the parameter section and then the report is blank. Same in Chrome. According to Microsoft Safari IS supported if in a limited fashion. The reports are not complex. In fact I created a report that only had a line on it to see if it would show up in Safari but no, that report is completely blank as well. Did anyone make SSRS reports viewable on Safari? Do I have to mess with some kind of a configuration setting?

You can fix this easily with jQuery - and a little ugly hack :-)

I have a asp.net page with a ReportViewer user control.

 <rsweb:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" runat="server"...

In the document ready event I then start a timer and look for the element which needs the overflow fix (as previous posts):

 <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function () {
        // Bug-fix on Chrome and Safari etc (webkit)
        if ($.browser.webkit) {
            // Start timer to make sure overflow is set to visible
             setInterval(function () {
                var div = $('#<%=ReportViewer1.ClientID %>_fixedTable > tbody > tr:last > td:last > div')
                div.css('overflow', 'visible');
            }, 1000);
        }
    });
</script>

Better than assuming it has a certain id. You can adjust the timer to whatever you like. I set it to 1000 ms here.
