so apart from my complete obsession with the google toolbar, there is one big reason that keeps me from using exclusively safari (i still have to live some of my life in firefox...)...

one of the big ones is bokee.com
few of you will likely care or be able to relate to this... but I cant post a blog from safari.. it doesn't tell me I cant... only in safari 3.1 can I easily log in (it used to render the log in button too far off the page to do it)... I have always been able to put in a title and write the whole blog but then when I hit publish it doesn't do anything... safari doesn't seem to know that its even a button... it doesn't press or anything...

what the stink?

if safari 3.1 is the most compatable... like they're saying:
MacNN | First Look: Safari 3.1

then why doesn't this work?
I want to live in it... it IS faster... but compatibility is a big issue... LOTS of chinese websites require IE and wont even work with firefox but I can get firefox to work on most... does anyone understand why this is?

I barely understand your post. What's the problem - Safari 3.1 won't let you post on blogs?

its pretty simple... sorry if i made it complicated...

safari doesn't recognize some buttons. it just treats them like linkless pictures... whats up with that ? why would safari fail to render a button correctly but firefox succeed?

Can you give an example for a button that does not work?
