Default airbnb and browser compatibility

I have just been trying to book an apartment in Budapest via AirBnB.

Failed.

I think I've managed to register, but if I attempt to book a place,
I end up back at the AirBnB homepage and no response comes back from
the property owner.

I have tried three different browsers with the same non-result.


When I first started using AirBNB, their Javascript was incompatible
with Internet Explorer 8 and FireFox and Safari. Now, on Mac at least,
it seems to work OK.

Before they fixed it, my trick was to
1. let it do its thing to get me into a search page, then
2. turn off the "search when I move the map"
3. use the map to get to where I really wanted
4. click "Search at this location

There is supposed to be an app for iPhone, but it's for iOS 7 and up
so I can't run it (mine uses iOS 6).


Been a few months since I tried their iPhone app, but then, it sucked.
