the new Safari build included with 10.5.2 seems to have broken Saft 10.0.4. heres a fix:

1. open the Applications folder and right/control click on Saft and choose "Show Package Contents"
2. open Contents then Resources
3. right/control click on Saft.bundle
4. open Contents
5. open Info.plist with either Property List Editor or TextEdit. if you have Developer Tools installed it will open with Property List Editor. if not drag it onto the TextEdit icon in the Finder or the Dock.
6. for Property List Editor
- open Root then SaftSupportedSafariBuild
- change the the "1" value to read "5523.15"
- save it

for TextEdit
- change the second string in the array the read like this

<string>5523.15</string>

- save it

7. open Safari and Saft should be loaded.
 
why redownload when i can just edit a few numbers? the developer probably just did this with the new update anyway.

Obviously you can do whatever works best for you. My post was intended for those (most people I would think) who would prefer to download the latest version rather than edit plist files. You also never know if code has been changed.
 
I can confirm that this also works with the new Safari / Webkit (3.1) builds. You just have to replace the value with "5525.9" (check the about-box to confirm).
 
Saft users, how do I get the enter/Ctrl-Enter to activate the Next/Previous links in say, Google.

From the "Usage" page:
http://haoli.dnsalias.com/Saft/Usage/index.html

Enter/Ctrl-Enter to Go to Next/Previous Links (Like in Google)
Due to user requests, Saft add this OmniWeb feature to Safari. You can use Enter key instead of clicking on "next" links as in pages of search results from Google. Ctrl-enter for "previous" link. Saft does so by searching for links with these two keywords (and their variants in German, French and Japanese).
