Safari 1.2 Released

In your Software Update... Apple released Safari 1.2 today:

Safari 1.2 improves compatibility with websites and web applications by providing increased support for standards, adds support for personal certificate authentication, and works with Java 1.4.2 to enable websites that rely on LiveConnect for communication between JavaScript and Java applets.

This update also provides improved application stability, full keyboard access for navigating web pages, and the ability to resume interrupted downloads.

Safari 1.2 was recently seeded on Thursday and provides many requested new features.

Man, that was fast, posted on Mac Rumors the same minute it showed up in my update!

I've been looking forward to "full keyboard access" for quite some time. This'll be cool!

I use it in many apps these days and in dialog boxes, a great feature when I don't want to use my mouse.

One thing I don't like is the Download window now shows time remaining instead of kb/sec.

Safari 1.2 still has problems with Ebay and adding images to your auction.

One thing that i REALLY dont like with the tabbing is that the tab key cycles through the bookbar bar... I have it set to not tab through links, and those are just a bunch of links :mad:

I've not updated Safari for a while (using v85 at the moment) I'm still using 10.2 and was a little suprised to see this requires Panther :/

Is this release the first version that requires Mac OS X 10.3 ?

It's just for Panther

I think it's just for Panther. Take a look at the download page. It says:

Requirements for Safari 1.2:

Mac OS X 10.3 or later

Any Macintosh computer

Requirements for Safari 1.0:


Mac OS X 10.2 or later

Any Macintosh computer

Does anyone know why (technical reasons) this Safari update will only work with OS 10.3? I know the obvious marketing and sales reasons why Apple would not include a Jaguar update.

Oh well, I guess us with only 10.2 will be left in the dark on this one.

Could anyone that managed to acquire this build before it's official release confirm weather it works with OS X 10.2 or not? I know Apples download page says it requires Panther but I have my doubts about that.
