safari sucks

[KrysBaz]

after the recent update I have had nothing but trouble with safari.
Cannot load data errors, random applcication has quite unexpectidly, spinning beachball, it's driving me mad.

Hopefully 10.3.7 might sort out this instability.

Prior to the upgrade: safari was great, haven't tried firefox yet, bit becomming increasingly curious

I'm getting the cannot load data error too on my Safari in 10.3.6, but it doesn't occur all the time, just intermittently. I too hope that Mac OS X 10.3.7 will make this annoying error message go away.

1st: I am not getting any long load time with the fox and the other site that was posted. It could be you internet connection.

2nd: safari is only taking a lot of cpu for these sites since they are "TUNED" for IE bogus to be honest and retarded. I don't think these sites are using open standards for all they content and or it could also be flash that is part of this mess.

3rd: why are you reading FOX NEWS?

4th: it could be the X.3.6 update or something else, hope whatever problem all of you affected ones have is fixed in the next update.

I still like Safari over FireFox since it loads pages faster, scrolling was never an issue on my system.

as fun as it is

to complain about sites not being standard compliant...

and to justify poor performance somehow..

That doesn't actually change any rendering speeds. And as a minority <2% of the browser market, there is no incentive for anybody to bother recoding their sites.

Firefox is making headway, but that isn't the same rendering engine as safari either.

Use what works best, not what you feel loyalty to.

For rendering purposes, I'd lump Safari, Shiira, OmniWeb, and all other WebKit/WebCore-based browsers together with Netscape, Mozilla, Firefox, and all other Gecko-based browsers, since, generally speaking, anything that works in a WebKit browser also works in a Gecko browser. How does a 20-25% combined market share for the whole group sound to you?

That sounds about right and firefox controling over 20% of them.

In the end with the browswer wars have quited down Sarfai will still not be on anyone radar as a browser. Even is 100% mac users uses Sarfai you still talking a 3-4% market share and you all know a lot of mac uses do not use Sarfai.

The 3 big players when it all said in done will be IE, Firefox and Oprea. With firefox and IE leading the way. The nativic OSX browser will not even be considered due to lack of users
