so far v67 appears much more stable than v64. v64 was probably the most unstable build to have been leaked yet. it would crash at least twice a day for me.

v67 has crashed once for me tonight. v62 almost never did, so it's not a great sign, as far as I'm concerned. (v64 didn't last more than a couple of days, it was so bad.)
Force quit didn't even work and I had to force restart my computer (good thing I'm not an uptime phreak), but force quit has been troublesome ever since 10.2.4.

forgot to mention ALOT of layout bugs have been fixed. all vBulletin board such as this one now render correctly without the vertical lines being all over the place.
as far as making a program quit, if safari just wont quit, drop into the terminal and 'killall Safari'

Everything froze. I couldn't have pulled up Terminal if I'd wanted to. Even the beachball spun eerily slower than usual.
It was a Blackboard site, and the site itself has not been rendering properly in Safari since v62 at least (I can't remember beyond that). I get a garbled paragraph of kanji (sp?) instead of what should be there (tables, in English).
But, yeah, tables look much times better.

I figure they are watching user response on the web. They've already made it very clear that they are paying attention to the rumor sites. I'm sure they want the next official release to be something to users take notice.
Apple, if you are reading this and looking for feedback, give me an option to make it AQUA! And send me a free PB. Or maybe just buy me some ice cream.

I would use it but,,,,,,,,
the brushed metal look was cool for about 15 minutes,,,,,,3 years ago. Blaaaaaaaaaaa. Get real. Also,, I have drank almost a whole bottle of Crown Royal tonight,,, so please forgive my bad grammer. But brushed metal looks like crap. Its played out like Ferrbies and lame ass Japaness cartoones. Fix it and i might switch from Camino.

PS,,,, is there a way to skin Safari?

Well, I'm not as impressed as I might be. There is a simple page of text on my web site (my resume, to be precise) that Safari has yet to render correctly. v0.67 does a better job than earlier versions, but it still fails to turn off the bold on the text. (Earlier versions failed to turn off both the bold and the underline.)
Also, v0.67 doesn't handle my opening page very well at all. It loads the page, then at the last minute it changes to a page of gobbledigook. I checked it with v0.60, and it seems to handle it just fine. [Okay, I just reloaded the opening page in v0.67, and it did in fact display it correctly. However, the initial problem makes me somewhat dubious.]
BTW, has anyone else noticed that v0.67 is almost twice as big as the previous versions? What does it do that takes that much more code?!?

not to be offensive, but thats more your fault than Safari's. in fact its very much along the same lines as Hyatt has been blogging about.
Get rid of the <B> in this line:
it works fine after that. the fact that the underline now turns off even tho it shouldn't be there either just goes to show that they are having to fix bad code.
the reason the safari app is bigger now is due to included localizations.

I downloaded v67 ealier today. Tabs and autofill are pretty cool but not done yet, that's for sure. I have a lot of problems getting pages to render correctly. When I try to open up CNN.com in a tab it doesn't render correctly at all...almost no info shows up. I deleted it already and am sticking with v62 until Apple formally releases a new public beta. I didn't intend on using it full time anyway (v67 that is) just wanted to see the progression.

I sugest making the google bar smaller so they can space out the buttons, now that autofill is there. do I need like a super long text to search, no not really...
you can type all of this 'I can type alot in this google car it aint funny!!!!!!' On my 17" no matter how big you make the screen the box's stay in the same place. 🙁

No offense taken. I hadn't even noticed that code. I use a wysiwyg web builder and only peruse the code afterward to see and drastic discrepancies, or if the page is rendering incorrectly. As every other browser I've tried it on rendered this page properly, I didn't think to look at the code myself. I've fixed it now, and next time I update my site, it'll be updated there.
However, as this wasn't an issue for any browser but Safari, I think that it's still something for them to improve.

as to the bug with safari tabs:
i found no problem when it comes to resizing. i do not have is auto select the newest tab.
as to the bug of the first tab always being active:
just wipe the preferences and then use Safari Enhancer v67 compatible to bring back the debug menu etc. SE also has an option for removing the metal inferface and bringing it back. your call.
if you want either of these (v67 or its SE version) email me at benjamingreenau@optusnet.com.au. Safari is 3.4MB as a .dmg.sit file and Safari Enahncer for it is 404KB as a .dmg file.
if you want, you know what to do.

you better take that down before you get caught. i think that;s against the rules to be able to say that. isn't it?

Seems better so far--more stable, able to remove the brushed metal from recessed tabs, and fewer rendering problems. The autofill is still dodgy, though. It won't remember my ESPN bracket even though I've changed the preferences to tell it to remember those sorts of things.
At this point, it's fairly easy to find in any of the places where you would look for software (such as peer-to-peer networks). The e-mail thing is against the rules, though.

ummm, all you have to do is click and drag the dot between the google seach field and the url field. problem solved.
MrMacMan
macrumors 604
Um... lets see I Don't want the web bar to get bigger. I just want to space the ICONS out. Not the google bar and or web bar.
There is no click drag thing inbeteen them.
Try reading that I want the ICONS spaced not just make the Google bar smaller hence making the URL bar larger.
Lets repeat v67 is true. People have it, many people have it. v70 is fake because they aren't just gonna put 3 more builds out so fast.
