    what about the flash bug? actually there have been a number of bugs that already have been addressed and fixed (according to that hyatt guy... what is his name? he has a blog too I bet that outlines the changes)

    nah, they are just covering their bums.

    MB: I doubt it. That is just a safeguard to be sure someone doesn't keep using the beta forever and gets the final version when it's available. Quit Safari, set your clock forward a year, and relaunch Safari. See?

    okay .... opensource and khtml? give the code!!

    it will be curious to follow the migrations btw chimera and safari. no tabs - thus chimera. besides, isn't the time of the payable browsers over??

    Something I just noticed. In Chimera (and possibly other browsers, but Chimera is all I used for a long time before Safari) the cursor disapears when you use the arrow keys to scroll (kind of like in Word, the cursor diasappears when you type) as to get out of your way, till you use the mouse. That's a subtle yet handy little feature that I'd like to see in Safari. It's annoying to be reading a web page ans have the cursor in the way of what your reading, and it's just nice to not have to worry about remembering to move the cursor off to the side.

    Brad, that's about what was written in Opera before their commercial vrsion came out. And beta didn't work then... i don't want to play with the clock, so in that case i just trash it. anyway, chimera untill safari gets tabs and beats the speed of my boosted version.

    I noticed this almost immediately and sent them feedback when I started using Safari.



    It can be pretty annoying. Not that I'm saying Safari is evil or anything, for you defenders out there. It is a beta, after all.

    Like Mac OS X with Darwin, Safari is not *entirely* open sourced. The important parts (WebCore and JavaScriptCore) are and can be used in your own apps. Ken from Omni has stated that they are considering using these components in the next major update to OmniWeb.

    I really don't think Apple can afford to repackage X with a free browser (other than Safari if it remains free) again, and make it look crappier than it should.

    No you don't. Right-click the iTunes icon and use the "next" or "previous" menu-items...

    Anyone who is still doing this needs to download youpi key and use it to configure previous, next and play/pause shortcut keys.



    <a href="http://perso.club-internet.fr/phupe/english/YKIndex.html"; target="_blank">http://perso.club-internet.fr/phupe/english/YKIndex.html</a>;



    tell application "iTunes"

    \tplaypause

    end tell



    tell application "iTunes"

    \tprevious track

    end tell



    tell application "iTunes"

    \tnext track

    end tell

    Cool m8, thx for the tip! Gonna have to try that... Do you have to compile the applescript and assign it a keystroke, or can you run the scripts by just entering the code into Youpi?

    I just downloaded the update and now it won't launch. Unexpectedly quits on me.



    Any ideas why this should be? Anyone else discovering this?



    [edit: went to knowledge base and fixed it for myself -



    home/Library/Preferences, get rid of com.apple.safari.plist, which seems to spontaneously go all funny like]

    It's really easy. Just select Run Script as a type of action, give it a name, assign it a key and paste in the script.



    I use F10, F11, F12 as previous, play/pause, forward. A nice touch is that iTunes will launch if it is not already running.



    Then add the following program that fades in track info at the start of each track.

    Really? Seems fine here, but then again, I'm on broadband.

    Hassan,



    I'm not too savvy but I had the same problem at first. What I did was drag the logo to the hard disc. Then I dragged into the applications file. it asked if I would like to replace the original (natch, of course). Then I dragged the logo from the applications folder into the dock, clicked on it and it finally launched. Don't know if this will help.
