Safari 5

[SaltLife]

Can't reproduce it either. :/

Yea, I just reinstalled from the .dmg file and it still produced the same results. Perhaps I'll re-download maybe something just ins't right with my package. Because this will make me lose my mind if it occurs each time.

all i care about is speed, so is it faster then chrome?

Than Chrome 6 in raw JS/Canvas performance? No, but some aspects of it will be much faster (like CSS3 animations).

It's now on Software Update for Mac and Windows users alike.

Extensions sound interesting... Could we be seeing extensions similar to what we have on Firefox and Chrome?

Did you trash your preferences? The com.apple.safari.plist file.

It has been the second it appeared on Apple's website. I immediately downloaded it through Mac OS X' Software Update.

I just found an odd safari bug (maybe it's just me)

But,

1. while I am here on neowin.net and I open a new tab and go to say 'google.com'

2. Close the 'google' tab

3. Return to 'newoin' and Click 'reply' from neowin.net

safari is automatically reopening the closed tab....

Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: I can duplicate this every time, and I'm on Safari OSX 10.6.3

I just replicated this on windows. very strange bug that!

Probably very much like Chrome's extensions.

Yes I can replicate this on OSX 10.6.3 as well.

Dear God, how will we manage with today's storage space?!

You do realize it will replace the existing Safari files and frameworks on your computer, not install them alongside? :rolleyes:

Odd, I don't remember Firefox requiring 100+ MB to install.

Firefox does not install components for use by other software, Safari does, similar to how IE used to be so integrated to Windows, Safari core components are used system wide on mac and for most apple software for windows

I'm not alone!

Man, I wonder what it is... I'm going to try on some other forums. I don't think it's just any <a href> that's causing it, because it only occurs with the 'reply' 'edit' functions (that I've seen so far)

Probably very much like Chrome's extensions.

Yep I can replicate that too, and it is not just the first time you press reply, it is everytime after that too

[SMELTN]

Looks nice

yea, it's getting rather annoying now. I want to send a bug report but It's only on neowin.net though, and I don't see anything in the element inspector that would cause an alarm or that is different from say clicking on community rules.

You might as well send a report. Maybe Apple values Neowin? :p

Update: I like that Safari 5 supports non-prefixed versions of things like border-radius now.

[tender_boi]

Safari for the win!

Finally the news I was expecting today.

[Xero]

Really cool extension for Safari 5.

I can see this useful for any web designers out there.

Happens to me, too. Very odd bug.

Also, I just now realized that Safari 5 brought back the progress bar in the address bar, as opposed to the spinning loading wheel that Safari 4 had. Is there a way to change the bar back to the wheel?

Wow, that looks really handy! I can't wait for that to be released. :D

I hope so. I love Chrome extensions. :)

Reader is fantastic. It even does multiple pages. Try it out:

The progress bar back in the address bar is much welcomed as well.

What do you mean it even does multiple pages? Am I missing something?

But yeah totally loving Reader. Is there an Extension for FF on Windows that is similar to Reader? On my Mac I use Safari, but I Windows 7 I have grown accustomed to FF because of the extensions, but Reader may just force me to make the switch on Windows now unless there is an extension for FF that is similar.

Also just curious, for anyone to answer, what is the best way to import my current FF bookmarks into Safari 5? Just export them and import them the good old fashioned way, or is there a better method?

Did I miss something or didn't it ask you to import bookmarks?

edit: never mind, thats when installing Firefox.

Chrome, FF and Safari all have options to automatically import bookmarks from other installed browsers

now if you are going from one OS to another then export/import is good enough
