<strong>KidRed, dragging the links was the first thing I did, but it is quite painful when you have a link library of several thousand that is already nicely organized to keep that bulk painlessly useful. I'm looking for a wholesale import that maintains heirarchical sub-folders.
I might be the only one concerned about this, but Chimera is the only browser that will split the bookmark bar into two rows if there are too many to fit into one row. That's the only thing keeping me from switching from Chimera. (sad isn't it?). That and maybe tabbed browsing, i really like that.

Just wanted to chime in here. I do really like this new Safari, but that brushed metal drives me crazy. And it appears I'm not the only one. But there is good news! This app was built with the "new" project builder, making it VERY easy to turn off the brushed metal look, which I did immediately!. (If you have the developer tools installed, it's easy, anyway.) Here's how to do it:
.5) Quit Safari!!!
1) Open the Safari package. (You know, right click/control click on it-> Show Package Contents)
2) Browse to /Contents/Resources/English.lproj/
3) Double click on Browser.nib and project builder will open.
4) In the window titled "Browser NIB" you'll see an icon named Window. Click it.
5) From the Tools menu, select "Show Info..." and at the bottom of that window, you'll see "Textured Window" is checked. Uncheck it.
6) There is no step 6! HAHAHA. Well, maybe save.....
Also note that if you really like the brushed metal look, you can make many Mac OS X application windows look that way with this method.
Share and Enjoy!
Oh, if you don't have the development tools and want to do this, let me know. I can probably post the modified file you can just drop in someplace.
just realized that Safari had imported all my bookmarks from IE. how polite..
now, my only problem is my internet Album, where i've stored even more references than in my toolbar&favorites menu.
now, i know that i probably could just save them as pdf's, or only keep the URL's, but to save pages inside your browser, not loosing the content (pulled pages, changed content etc.) is a must for me...
<strong>Spelling does work in text fileds, surprised you didn't know to choose 'check spelling as you type'. It doesn't stay on all the time, but it does work.

Ah well -- apparently I didn't play with it enough before posting. Mea culpa. I noticed the spell checking shortly after I'd posted saying it didn't exist... as for keychain support, I haven't seen it work yet, but perhaps I just haven't used it enough.
Overall, it is looking pretty nice to me... how about a customizable toolbar option, ala the Finder window?
Also, I've noticed that the Find feature (searching for text on a web page) doesn't seem to work on some web pages. Perhaps it doesn't search all frames?
it does not cache things correctly, if you load a movie adn then hit the bookmark button and go back, it has to reload the movie, this definatly needs fixing for the final, but for beta this rocks!
...also a bug i sent into apple is that it does not work properly with weather.com for the 'map in motion' feature...or it didn't for me at least, it didn't load
One really cool thing that I noticed was that if you visit an FTP site after log in, it mounts the site on your desktop...very cool until my finder shit the bed. Beta, but it will be cool.
<strong>OW bookmark files are just HTML... easy to parse, in theory.
But... Safari has *ZERO* AppleScript support. Shaaaaaaaaaame.
It's a beta, but shaaaaaaaaaame.
Would make it much easier to add bookmarks programatically.
Edit: OTOH, Safari bookmarks file is a plist. Easy to make programmatically. But just not with AppleScript.
But it's in ~/Library/Safari/
Shaaaaaaaaame. Shouldn't that be in either a) ~/Library/Bookmarks/ (and HTML so other browsers can share), or b) in ~/Library/Application Support/Safari/

Yea I know, there's an option up top, but I don't have tons of bookmarks.
[QB]
Hitting the Tab key works too. No mouse needed
Edit: Whoops! It doesn't work so well if there are a lot of text entry fields on the web page. Oh well
Thanks for the reply, clicking the icon by the address does what i need.
For a beta though, IT RULES.

Anyone else having this problem?
now, my only problem is my internet Album, where i've stored even more references than in my toolbar&favorites menu.
now, i know that i probably could just save them as pdf's, or only keep the URL's, but to save pages inside your browser, not loosing the content (pulled pages, changed content etc.) is a must for me...
any ideas for solution with Safari?

Yeah, it also pulls in the web sites that IE has memorized (url completion) -- quite nice indeed.

Thanks Moki....I was wondering where those came from, when I suddenly had type-ahead URLs on a just-installed app.
:cool:
