Safari Forms Authentication fails

I developed many sites using Windows FormsAuthentication and on my last project I am stuck with Safari.

My development machine is using Vista & Safari 4.0.4 (531.21.10).

The web site was designed using aspx & c#.

I tried Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Chrome & Maxthon2 there and they all work perfectly. But Safari fails to redirect the page.

I then installed safari (same version as above) to an XP machine and the result is the same.

It does not work.

I have been looking for a fix but so far I failed. Unfortunately most of the members of this site use Safari (on MAC) and I am not able to test the site with Safari.

Correction:

This only fails on the current OS X version of Safari. It works on the
current Safari 4 for Windows.

Is there any reason why none of my web applications using forms
authentication refuse to work with Apple Safari? These work perfectly
with IE, Firefox and Chrome. Firefox works identically in OS X and
Windows.

Am I missing a work around? I am having a hard time believing that
just that browser in particular is giving me grief.

TIA
