If you browse Apple's main page, (<a href="http://www.apple.com/"; target="_blank">http://www.apple.com/</a>

with Safari, you'll see this:

If you browse it with any other browser, you'll see this:

Also, you should note that browsing to <a href="http://www.apple.com"; target="_blank">www.apple.com</a> with Safari means you don't get this:

Instead, Safari users get:

Safari sucks... it's hardly faster than Chimera and doesnt have tabbed browsing. Until it does, I will never use Safari

Looks what I started with the cool stuff

Ok, I give up.

You all must mean COOL with a:

Well, I'm not too crazy about browser specific code, even more so when it is completely unnecessary. Cool or not, this goes against everything that the web should be about. Now such a minor example as this seems harmless, but sometimes you just have to stand on principle.

ps Chimera renders all the pages at <a href="http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/"; target="_blank">css edge</a> correctly while Safari does not. But Safari destroys Chimera in loading the pages at <a href="http://www.highend3d.com"; target="_blank">highend3d.com</a>

Man, y'all are a bunch of cool-aid drinking lemmings or something?

SPIFFY ! :cool:

Whoa. Everyone try this:

Drag any text-based hyperlink! Look at that! You could even drag a link for "General Discussion" to your iChat window instead of Option-Clicking, copying the url, and then pasting the url.

Drag and Drop Simple Instead!
