Anyone running OS-X jaguar & Safari?

[willstrickland]

Just loaded Safari...mostly very cool, but some weird shit. Ex: the RAWK!!! graemlin and Ehmmic's frog have a black flashing background (looks like when the animated gif loops it flashes) Bug or simple fix?

I don't have that problem, which version are you running? I've got 1.0.1 (v85.6).

[willstrickland]

Running 1.0 v85, just downloaded it yesterday on software updates...I'd have thought it would be the most recent.

 

Also having some issues with security certificates...tried the fix that apple recommended by adjusting the date/time to be right, but that didn't solve it. Could be the specific site.

 

I was also wondering why you can't tab to buttons like on other browsers...my Win machine always tabs to buttons, Exp 5.2 on my Mac tabs to some of them, and safari doesn't tab to any I've found yet. Just jumps to another field somewhere...and example is like the login here or on hotmail or something. enter name, hit tab, enter passwd, hit tab...normally should highlight "enter" button...doesn't do it.

 

The browser is pretty slick otherwise, I don't want to can it for some minor stuff like these issues.

but if it were all free and that was the only computer you had and you would rather spend your money on roadtrips, beer, and pretty much the good life...wouldnt a ms machine be just as good? and iain, how about this...you can have my ms machine..while i ski and climb all winter!

I don't pay for computers. Worse purchase than a new car. I just make sure I work the connections. That said I would still cough up the dough for a Mac. They're just that cool these days.

then give up the beta Foo! What's with the tabbing and security certif things? won't allow a bypass either...hit continue and it kicks out the same msg.

will, to own and run a real computer..you must have your penis down sized. so you are prolly fucked without the snippty snip!

 

that leads into a redneck joke:

 

how do you circumcise a redneck???

yeah there are some weird quirks with Safari. that tab thing is annoying. esp. if the the form on the website hasn't been coded thoughtfully. As for the security stuff, I don't know. I've never had an issue and I do almost all my shopping online and manage all my bills that way, so I'm using secure connects all the time, no probs.

[willstrickland]

You know, security issue must be site specific in this case...other secure servers aren't giving me probs. No little "lock" icon to show a secure site either huh?

[iain]

should be in the upper-right corner of the window, looks like a little padlock when a secure connection is established.

I tell ya what sucks...trying to download a 100mb OS update pkg with dial-up ISP that gives me about 5-7k/s. Put that thing on and go to bed, hopefully I won't have one of these radom "The modem has unexpectedly hungup" I've been getting. WTF is that all about? I don't have the "disconnect if idle for xx minutes" setting turned on either.

 

Speaking of sleep...that's where I'm going.
