Apple releases final version of Safari 1.0

updated 05:00 pm EDT, Mon June 23, 2003

 
", 0, 0);


Apple today released , completing its successful beta program which had nearly five million downloads since its initial release near the beginning of this year. Safari will be the default browser for all newly introduced Macs, starting with the Power Mac G5 announced today. Apple also released a software development kit that allows developers to embed the Safari HTML rendering engine directly into their applications. Safari features AutoTab for quick loading of bookmark folders, bookmark syncing, increased standards support and is available in all Mac OS X languages. [not yet available]



Safari features innovations, such as a built-in Google search; SnapBack to instantly return to search results; a new paradigm for naming, organizing and presenting bookmarks; tabbed browsing; and automatic "pop-up" ad blocking.




Based on KHTML from KDE's Konqueror open source project, the Safari rendering engine delivers the best performance and standards compatibility available on the Mac platform. Apple will continue to work closely with the open source community and share its ongoing optimizations to the KHTML code.




Safari 1.0 is localized for English, Japanese, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Brazilian Portuguese, French Canadian, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Swedish, Korean and Simplified Chinese.

    Still some problems

    1.0 still doesn't render Exchange Server 2000's Outlook Web Access properly. Of course, that may be because those Microsoft suck-asses designed it for Windows browsers and not for HTML standards.

    And https sites still don't work at all with whatever web proxy is used at one of my large corporate clients.

    1.0 doesn't work for me

    -installed the update
    -deleted (stupidly) the renamed beta copy
    -Safari 1.0 won't launch, just gives flashing triangle 3 times then quits without any other indication/message/etc.

    sucks to be back using explorer. Any way I can get a copy of the last beta?

    Jagged text

    Text doesn't render under 12pt. It looks like it's based on 96dpi now.

    how can I go back?


    I installed 1.0 and it's doing lots of annoying things. I have a clean version of 1.0B2 on my system, and the programs opens OK-- but then if I try to use it go to a web site (or even open an HTML file on my hard drive) nothing at all happens! Was the Beta version automatically disabled somehow when I installed 1.0? Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get 1.02B working again? Thanks!

    Still can't roll this ou

    Looks nice. Works great (nice and speedy for the most part). But there are 2 absolute deal-breakers: 1) no way to turn OFF the History; in a lab environment we don't want users to be able to see what the person prior to them was viewing, and 2) no way to STOP it from keeping a cache of stuff like Google searches; people don't need to see that the user before them was searching for "c** guzzling teen s****" or "a**-f*** britney spears".

    Even Explorer can do these 2 things.

    As nice as it is, we won't be including Safari in our master campus image. (And yes, I've already sent feedback to Apple. But seeing how they STILL haven't fixed the Finder scroll bug, or the list-view new folder rename bug (both of which existed since 10.0.0), I'm not holding my breath)

    weightwatchers.com

    Safari 1.0 is not supported by weightwatchers.com. It says I need to upgrade my browser, and recommends Netscape for Mac users. I hope someday I'll no longer need to switch between several browsers.

    crappy new font rendering

    So, can anybody tell me how to enable this hidden preference for the minimum font size? I tried "% defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitMinimumFontSize 9" in the terminal but it doesn't seem to have worked. There's nothing I hate more than fonts that are too big, but my usual setting of Verdana 12 in Safari 1.0 causes too many sites, even Apple's own online store, to be almost illegible when they use small type. Of course, when I make my default size bigger to fix this, all the normal text looks absolutely huge! :(
