- anaksemuabangsa, on 10/24/2007, -4/+42really enjoy this road to leopard series.
- inactive, on 10/19/2007, -5/+24If only Apple didn't suck at making software for Windows.
- newbill123, on 10/20/2007, -2/+17Unlike some of the other articles, this one had very little about the actual changes for Safari 3.0 in Leopard. I like the series AppleInsider does, but this was much more focused on the history of hypertext browsing than the 3.0 webkit browser and what features it gains on 10.6.
- totorototoro, on 10/19/2007, -0/+13Yeah. I hope Windows users don't judge Safari based on the Windows beta...it is nowhere near as good as the OSX Safari beta.
- macpro2006, on 10/20/2007, -3/+13apple insider does a really good job. Almost every story that they have gets on Digg and hits the homepage
- yabos, on 10/20/2007, -0/+9All these articles make me really appreciate the GUIs around today. Those old programs are so damn ugly.
- jask0, on 10/20/2007, -2/+10All I want Safari to do is open links that open in a new window to open in ONE window, the same one that's opened.
- Balanced, on 10/19/2007, -2/+10Command-T?
- wilhel1812, on 10/19/2007, -5/+11safari
- wilhel1812, on 10/19/2007, -2/+8a better music library app for windows, mention it?
- Balanced, on 10/20/2007, -0/+5Well, the WWW came out of research for CERN, which I believe is Swiss.
- devindotcom, on 10/19/2007, -2/+7People are digging up a guy who just said
"safari"
Now THAT is brand dedication. - xkilleddestinyx, on 10/20/2007, -1/+6not alot about Safari but cool to see internets history kinda thing
- petard, on 10/20/2007, -3/+7iTunes for Windows blows! Super slow and lagy!
- Ireland, on 10/19/2007, -0/+410.6? Holy Moly "LION" is OUT!!
- meatmcguffin, on 10/19/2007, -0/+4And the first computer was British and the first modern computer was German. Did you have a point or are you just trying to sound like a pompous, patriotic idiot?
- Ireland, on 10/20/2007, -0/+4"are we there yet, are we there yet, are we there yet, are we there yet, are we there yet..."
- MtheoryX, on 10/20/2007, -0/+4I have completely abandoned Firefox for Safari 3 on Leopard, and I couldn't be happier.
If they every get the memory under control, I *might* give Firefox a look again, but for now, I couldn't care less about Firefox.
BTW, it's Firefox, not FireFox...not everything uses upper camel case. - inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+3Tim Berners-lee invented WWW and developed the first web browser and web server, and he's English. But he did it on NEXTSTEP, which is Californian.
- davidrossiii, on 10/19/2007, -0/+3http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment#Text
- dslozak, on 10/19/2007, -0/+3Command + Click. Problem solved.
- tweder, on 10/19/2007, -0/+3Command-click the link
- inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+3The difference between WMP and iTunes is what pushed me to try out OS X, and I haven't looked back. Of course, that was in 2004. Pretty good timing, don't you think?
- MonkeyFarts, on 10/20/2007, -0/+3I think he's referring to forcing all links to open within a single window. As in, whenever you click a link, it will never, ever open it in a new window. And if you have multiple windows open, then the one that gets a new tab is whichever one is currently active, or the last active window if you're opening from an external app.
My take on this is that it would be a good idea to add it just for the sake of fulfilling peoples' preferences. My opinion, however, is that it's not really a big deal. I simply bound F10 to a mouse button with USB Overdrive, so if I have multiple windows open, switching between windows is a single mouse click away, and it's much more convenient to me because I only see the active Safari windows pan out, and I can see the website before selecting it. Exposé is the best! - davidrossiii, on 10/19/2007, -0/+3oh c'mon
media player sucks - inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2✔
- Vician, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2Until Camino gets the font rendering that's in Gecko 1.9 and actually supports normal form widgets as WebKit now does, I'll pass... Although, at least it does offer a single window mode. Which is STILL the one damn thing Safari needs badly.
- wilhel1812, on 10/18/2007, -0/+2good comment, but don't forget that CERN invented the internet. At least we have that to say:p
- Ireland, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2No, they're digging him up because he's going on safari.
- MonkeyBoy87, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2anyone know how to make safari open a new window as a tab ?
- daGUY, on 10/20/2007, -0/+2I've been loving this series of articles, but this one in particular put a LOT of focus on the history and not really much at all on Safari 3 itself. Perhaps since we already have the beta there isn't really much to talk about that we don't already know.
- MonkeyFarts, on 10/19/2007, -1/+3No, the Internet came from Al Gore. Also, I created Email.
- dslozak, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2All I hope is that 3.0 and Flash get along.
- Vician, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2Except, as far as we've been told and anyone knows, Input Managers such as SafariStand, Saft, and the rest will no longer work in Leopard. So, there goes that idea...
- Kappa00, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2USA USA USA!
- stalefries, on 10/19/2007, -0/+2Wrong, CERN was the WWW, Internet came from a US gov't research project.
- inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1InputManagers can be enabled in Leopard, but are disabled by default.
- rville, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1Do the Google Apps work with the windows version of this browser yet?
- tafkase7en, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1Thats a keyboard shortcut, not a button in the browser...
- inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1Safari doesn't break InputManagers. I'm using PithHelmet with Safari 3 + Nightly-build WebKit as I type.
- inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1Leopard is 10.5, tard.
- anjinash, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1Media Monkey. Don't let the goofy name fool you. It does about everything iTunes does, plus more, and does it faster and better. It watches folders for new music and doesn't have seizures when your music is on a networked drive. I truly wish MM had an OSX port.
Then there's Amarok 2.0, hopefully coming to OSX and Windows soon. Amarok slays iTunes in every conceivable way, no contest. - Vician, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1I think he means in Leopard, where Input Managers aren't supposed to work as they do now. Safari 3 and Tiger certainly still run them, but it's an OS issue not a browser one.
- LeeSoong, on 10/20/2007, -0/+1Will Safari 3.0 finally detect 'Non-responding Scripts' The way Firefox has for a long time ?
Or is it back to the 5 minute beach ball of death ? - wilhel1812, on 12/17/2007, -0/+1still it's the best... that's sad
- MtheoryX, on 10/20/2007, -0/+1Okay, I see what you mean. I agree, that feature could be usable; however, they will follow the 80/20 rule: If a feature is usable by 80% of your audience, build it in.
You can't develop for your 20%-ers because that leads to bloated code. I think a combination of Applescript and Quicksilver might suffice...unless greater than 20% of people start demanding the feature, of course. - omnivector, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1What?? How about 2 years of engine improvements, and performance optimizations, and new engine features like proper full editing support now?
- M4cb0y, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1What does Camino have that Safari doesn't?
- inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1Microsoft already does a pretty good job of making ***** software for windows anyway!
- MtheoryX, on 10/20/2007, -0/+1I tried it briefly under Panther when i had my iBook.
I really think the direction that WebKit is going is more interesting than the Gecko engine at this point though. -
