Safari Beta v64

MacRumors · Mar 6, 2003, 10:03 PM

Safari v64 is making the rounds.

Safari v62 brought us Tabs, and this new version (v64) appears to provide increased stability, improved tab appearance, loading status for tabs, and enhanced autocomplete.

Meanwhile, David Hyatt posted his perspective on Tabs in browsers as well as some implementation issues.

MrMacMan · Mar 6, 2003, 10:06 PM

sure no one needs 3 pages of WHERE DO I GET posts but if someone post a picture aint that fine?

TMA · Mar 6, 2003, 10:10 PM

I'm so happy!

Right clicking on a link and choosing "Open Link in New Tab" now opens the page in a background tab - leaving you free to carry on reading the first page.

Also another excellent feature is that if you have folders in your bookmark bar you can open all its contents into multiple tabs with a single click.

On the minus side i'm experiencing alot of sites with green text where it should be black

A very strange bug.

The only way is to find out under 'about- Safari' and for people not to edit images....

TMA · Mar 6, 2003, 10:21 PM

Piccy for you.

e2chris · Mar 6, 2003, 10:30 PM

oh that looks so cool. I wish they released this crap to everyone.

anyway... looks sweet!

oh and if v64 slips into your email then send it to e2chris@mac.com hehe

sorry arn!

King Cobra · Mar 6, 2003, 10:31 PM

Nice update.

A few hours after I got Safari v.62, the site hosting it got slapped with a Cease and Desist straight from Apple. I wonder if the same will happen for SpyMac.

Well, SpyMac seems to be generating some happy campers all of a sudden.

First point, requesting pirated software isn't bright.

Second point, requesting it be email to you is a bit dumber.

Third point, requesting it be emailed to YOUR MAC.COM email address is borderline Canadien.

Freg3000 · Mar 6, 2003, 10:38 PM

Even though it was wrong for the person to break their NDA; and even though it was wrong for that person to post it on the web; and even though its wrong that Spymac lets the link remain on their website-I still am glad to get it.

Even though it's wrong....

But new features are so cool!

LOL, that is pretty funny, but I hope you were not trying to spell Canadian....

Canadien is the french spelling and as an english CANADIAN i find it offensive... you cant call Canadian's stupid either... Watch CNN and then rethink who you're calling stupid

Does Apple not release interim builds for continuous feedback?

iSmell · Mar 6, 2003, 10:51 PM

Camino 0.7 is out. I still think it works better with more pages than Safari does. Maybe once Safari is out of beta, it will be my main browser, but until then I'm sticking with Chimeramino.

If they fix some of the javascript bugs and text encoding problems for Japanese language web pages, I will switch over. In the meantime, the only browser that can accurately render Japanese language web pages is the Explorer. Apple will want to fix this if they want to make Safari the default browser someday.

ennerseed · 10:57 PM

Via the images posted here I really think the tabs should be reversed.

By that I mean the paticular page you are visiting would be indented in, ie pushed with the mouse upon clicking (it would seem odd , the tab, coming toward you with your mouse action pushing down). It would also look attached to the page you are viewing vs attached to the tool bar, as it is now.

Doesn't that seem right?

saabmp3 · Mar 6, 2003, 10:55 PM

Well v.64 is working out nicly compared to v.62, but there are still some bugs when trying to open links using keyboard commands into new tabs.

I guess this is why this is a beta browser. I really wish that apple would release tabs into the open tho, it would be great!

BEN

Xero · Mar 6, 2003, 10:57 PM

wow these are some nice tabs. the option to open all links that reside in a folder on your bookmarks bar, into seperate tabs is pretty cool. man, apple knows how to take a good idea a step further.

) which one is causing you problems?
