Safari bug known
Safari 1.3, a nutritious part of Mac OS X 10.3.9, offers improved CSS support, nifty new features, and one rather unfortunate new CSS rendering bug.
If you’re using Safari 1.3 (and if you downloaded Mac OS X 10.3.9, you are using Safari 1.3), then you can easily see Safari’s new bug: the subnavigation in our sidebar starts in the wrong place, and the diamond markers preceding each list item are superimposed over the crack between columns.
The same bug is also in Safari 2.0 (Tiger). That’s not surprising: Safari 2.0 and Safari 1.3 are the same browser.
The day Safari 1.3 became available, we noted and reported this bug to Mr David Hyatt, Apple’s Safari chief. As is his wont, Mr Hyatt fixed the bug within a day. An updated version of Safari 1.3/Safari 2 (Tiger) will become available soon. Meanwhile, there is no need to write to us about the bug. But thanks for caring.
