On recent versions of Safari (Windows), clicking on a download link 'unloads' the page it was clicked from. It's basically trying to load the download script as if it were a webpage.
The download link is in Flash, and the code is:
url is the URL of the download script, and we use "_self" so a blank window doesn't pop up when clicked. This works fine on all other browsers, including older versions of Safari on Windows (fine in 5.0.2, broken on 5.1.2, 5.1.4), Safari on Mac, IE, Firefox etc..
Has anyone else seen this? I'm not sure if it's a "bug", but it's certainly different and inconsistent behaviour. Is there a bug-reporter page for Safari?
