What happened with select text in Safari? In Tiger (Safari Version 2.0 (412)) you cannot longer select text AND drag it, or is there something I'm overlooking?
Thanks.

Highlight, click and hold, pause, then drag. Should work.

Problem is, Carbon apps don't require the pause, Cocoa apps do.

Both have their problems, however I appreciate the pause, to allow to easy reselection within the existing selection.
