Wish I could reproduce this. lol I've never been able to do this in Safari 5 and I've used it every day since it was released.

Perhaps the issue with safari and the open tab was a problem all along, and they fixed a long term issue... That IPB has not come along and fixed yet.... (reverted to a normal browser) I'm still convinced that IPB does somethign special for the safari browser because if you watch it using the developer tools it doesn't fail until it loads safari specific code.

Well all I did was install Safari as normal, login into Neowin, navigate to this thread.

Then, open a new tab, load google, wait till it loaded fully, close the tab, and press reply under one of the posts

Safari opens the Google tab back up along with the reply window on this thread

On Neowin or any board that runs IPB, either QUOTE a message or use the FAST REPLY. The last tab you closed will reopen again, and steal the focus. This did not occur in Safari 4 and has been in every release of 5.

I really find it hard to believe the bug affects everyone else except for you. Are you using some kind of custom WebKit build? Because this only occurs with Safari, and it happens on both Mac OS X and Windows. It does not happen with any other WebKit browser on any other platform.

I'm not lying. I seriously can't make it happen. Standard Safari 5.0.2 with a few extensions (none of which affect Neowin).

What model Mac do you have? It just seems so strange that you are the only person I know of who hasn't had this bug. Just seems so odd.

I have both a 13" MacBook Pro and a 27" Core i5 iMac. I can't make it happen on either.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Here's a video of my MacBook Pro:

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
