Everything is screwed in Safari. Stupid Mac softwareQuote:

1. You don't provide any basis for either argument.Quote:

Wait, is OS X Safari 3 out? I thought it was part of Leopard.
The final release of Safari 3 will be included in Leopard, but you can download the public beta for Tiger. There is also a Windows version, but a friend of mine said that it's too buggy for daily use.
Just tried Safari on windows then... sokay. But I can't live without tabs so now I'm back on trusty, old FireFox.
Safari 3 supports tabbed browsing. Just hit Command-T on Mac OS X or Control-T on Windows to open a new tab. My main problem with Safari 3 is that it doesn't support keyword searches from the URL bar (Camino and Firefox have built-in support; Safari 2 has the extension Sogudi).
You're right, that really wasn't a good post - sorry. I do web design as a business, and the tendency is for IE and Firefox to display a page correctly, and for Safari to display it incorrectly. It's usually a minor table issue, or an unsupported Javascript feature, or something like that. But when I email a client telling them I added a rollover effect to the table cell navigation bar, and they're using Safari, I look stupid because it doesn't do anything.Quote:

If you really have trouble writing web pages that render properly in Safari, you could write a simple JavaScript function that forces clients to switch to Firefox or IE7 if they want to view the content.
I considered that, but as a web designer it looks bad... saying that pages I design require a download for some people. I usually just "dumb down" the page to be simpler without flashy stuff that doesn't work with all browsers.Quote:

The biggest problem for me was that there was no way for me to test compatability with Safari, as I don't own a mac). Now that they released Safari for Windows, I think i'll download it just to check my pages.
Oh, and thanks for your understanding, and I'm sorry I didn't explain myself earlier :doh:
Heres a quick and easy solution!
download firefox :l
The whole point of this thread is to determine whether Ynot's pages display in IE7. I assume he already uses Mozilla Firefox on his own computer(s), but not all viewers of his web page will.Quote:
