Safari - Mac - Home Depot website

I use the HD website a lot on my Mac using Safari. About a week ago the search box on HD shrunk and became non-functional on Safari, but it still works on Chrome. Any ideas? For a visual of what I'm talking about I included a picture using both Safari and Chrome. A week ago, when it first happened, I cleared website history on Safari and it began working properly, and then it started doing this again today. I don't want to clear history every time this happens because that clears everything else out, and then I'm constantly logging in to all of my usual sites. This worked for years, and just started about a week ago.

I've included a pic of the site both on Safari and Chrome.

I'm using the current Safari 18.1 with macOS 15.1 and haven't experienced that issue and I don't have anything to suggest that might help.

However, regarding

I don't want to clear history every time this happens because that clears everything else out, and then I'm constantly logging in to all of my usual sites

If you go to Settings (or previously Preferences) on the Safari menu and click "Privacy" in the bar at the top and the click "Manage Website Data" you can enter "homedepot" (no spaces) in the search box, you can then remove just Home Depot Cache, Cookies, etc without affecting other sites.

That doesn't resolve your issue but may make it a bit easier to deal with in the meantime.

Yeah, I did that. Didn't change anything.
