OS X 10.5.2 (9C31) Seeded, Safari 3.1 Beta Incorporates Latest Webkit Features

[Westside guy]

getElementsByClassName would be extremely handy; but only if it's implemented in IE and Firefox.

It looks like Firefox has it; but I don't see anything regarding IE either way.

 

[UMHurricanes34]

Keep the seeds flowing and get us the public release!

 

[berkleeboy210]

10.5.2. Friday, MacBook Pros Tuesday.

 

[notnek]

c'mon already.

 

[MacAddict1978]

heh.... this has been said after every build!

Considering the seed release escalation, I'd wager by Friday, if not tomorrow.

Yeah and seeing it took MS many years for proper PNG support in IE I wont be counting on it until at least 2012

And Duke Nukem 4ever "when it's done"

And Duke Nukem 4ever "when it's done"

Hahaha. I'm glad to see that Apple is taking their time on 10.5.2 and fixing as many things as they can, then there won't be so much fanfare around 10.5.3

 

[tcoleman]

New HP printer driver, FINALLY! I now can print and scan with my Leopard installed MacBook Pro!

Anyway, check out the Fixes at the bottom of the image. Hmmm, wonder what that means. Heh, heh. Point 2 must be coming soon, eh?

Come on, Apple! Get the .2 out!

Hey, thanks for the tip! I didn't know that HP had finally released drivers for Leopard.

 

[Wild-Bill]

The latest developer build offers fixes to a networking connectivity issue

You mean the networking issue where Leopard refuses to find your network because the SSID is disabled?

 

[Spike Lightfoot]

In respect for the folks that test this in the wild , bugs aren't normally a singular thing. They happen across a good size spectrum so please show a little more respect for the people that do the dirty work so you can have a better platform.

Sorry, the web interface apparently didn't like my <obvious sarcasm> and </obvious sarcasm> tags and left them off.

 

[badNameErr]

I'd rather all the talk of 10.5.2 disappears and only talk about it when it comes up!

Well, that is the way it is MEANT to be. We only hear about it because people insist on breaking their NDAs.

 

[hugodrax]

I dont get it its just a service pack. 10.5.1 is working fine here so I wont notice any difference with 10.5.2 anyhow.

 

[MacFly123]

10.6.0 is next after 10.5.2 to get ahead of Windows 7. Need all the OSX developers to work on 10.6. Sorry no 10.5.3.

LOL,

So 10.6 is about 2 years out right? When do you think we will start hearing rumors or anything about it and it's features etc? I know it is crazy cause Leopard just came out lol. I'm just curious about how far before the release things start to get out.

What would people like to see in 10.6? Any ideas, innovations, etc? I'm guessing more Multi-Touch. I think they are dripping that all in now to get people ready with the laptops. And I suspect we will see a new Multi-Touch mouse for the desktops to gain these new features that the laptops are getting

How about the networking issue where your wireless connection slows down and halts during a large download?

 

[byeehaaw]

the wiat continues.....

 

[Quillz]

Just waiting for 10.5.2 for the improvements it brings to Stacks and the menu bar.

How large of a download? I never have problems

 

[zorinlynx]

Yeah right, because everyone knows that leopard doesn't have any major network connectivity problems.

Aside from Novatel wireless cards on PPC, Leopard has been rock-solid network-wise in my experience.

I dunno if people have "weird" networks out there or what... But I've never had any issues here.

It looks like Firefox has it; but I don't see anything regarding IE either way.

getElementsByClassName is typically implemented by whatever javascript library you're using (Prototype, etc). Having a native implementation simply makes it faster for Safari users, it will still work fine for other browsers that don't have a native implementation.

 

[mac-er]

Are these Webkit features the things that are missing that cause websites to not match new appearances/functionality that work in Firefox?

For example, HP appears to have redesigned its webpage, which you can see in Firefox, but not in Safari.

And, Vanguard's website has some functionality on Firefox (under News & Commentary) that doesn't work in Safari.

Yes you will....everything that is working fine now will be broken AFTER 10.5.2 !!

 

[eastcoastsurfer]

So has Apple enabled/fixed TM/AirDisk in 10.5.2 yet? Or are they still going to screw the people who didn't wait for Time Capsule?

Why is it that some people can't comprehend that just because they aren't having a problem that it means that others who are having problems must be doing something "weird."

There are tons of people who are having major airport / wifi problems after upgrading to leopard.
