Excuse me, but is Safari not on your list of supported browsers? I am disappointed in you.

no it isnt. its a browser. one of the major 5 but nothing special.

rob1nfly · 2011-12-22 11:22:50

i think he put these because they are superior to all other browsers.

Ratburntro44 · 2011-12-22 11:32:49

That's hardly a reason not to support it like you support Firefox, Opera, and Chrome. Seriously, at least replace Chrome with 'Webkit Browsers' or something. Safari may not have anything special, but neither does Opera, Chrome, or Firefox. I am very disappointed.

Different55 · 2011-12-22 13:23:28

Opera: Tons of control. Speed dial, even interactive speed dial extensions that let you see weather, facebook messages, and more at just a glance. A big feature is Opera Dragonfly and it let's you try out addons, extensions, widgets, and skins and get a nice little popup asking if you want to keep it or not.
Firerfox: Lots of users, many extensions and addons. No built-in web developer tools.
Chrome: Lots of users, growing quickly, owned by google. Angry birds is included.
Safari: Can't think of anything special...

Ratburntro44 · 2011-12-22 13:29:46

Never heard of Firerfox, so I'll assume it's Firefox...

Safari:
On a Mac, where it should be, you can access almost all the Opera functionality through Dashboard with one keyboard button
More users != Better. How is no built-in web developer tools a plus?
Once again, More users != Better. Owned by google = worse, not better. I guess angry birds can count as a + there, but GOOGLE CHROME IS A BOTNET is already too bad to matter. Not to mention GOOGLE CHROME IS A BOTNET runs on WebKit, created by Apple for Safari. So why isn't Safari there?

And of course, the most special thing about Safari: I use it and I delude myself into thinking I'm cool.

Edit: Also, why do you claim to support firefox when even your homepage doesn't have full firefox support?

What do you mean, not FULL? It seems fine to me...?

Different55 · 2011-12-22 17:03:36

1. When I made it, I wasn't even thinking about safari.
2. When I wrote supported browser, I meant "browser that is not held together by spit and prayers."

Ratburntro44 · 2011-12-22 20:20:50

1. I accept that.
2. What?

@Coolio Border radius doesn't work on firefox and you Different didn't add -moz-border-radius to make it fully compatible.

Different55 · 2011-12-22 20:54:39

The Browser That Will Not Be Named is so full of crap the only thing holding it together is spit and a whole lotta prayers.
lol FF doesn't support border-radius? Noobs.

Ratburntro44 · 2011-12-22 21:57:30

Yeah. At some CSS3 things The Browser That Will Not Be Named actually has more support than FF.

Oops, wait it depends on the Firefox version. However, are large percentage of firefox users are on a version that it isn't supported in. w3schools has a list here of CSS3 support in different browsers.

Coolio · 2011-12-23 15:15:12

I use FF4, so I have no idea what you're saying.

Different55 · 2011-12-23 18:03:44

FF4? FF has gotten better. I think it's on 8 or 9 right now. Now it doesn't hang quite as bad but I get twice the javascript errors!

Coolio · 2011-12-23 18:08:24

OH oops. I meant 8. dunno why i said 4.

Different55 · 2011-12-23 18:13:19

Thank goodness. Now I know I'm not alone in my word of crashing flash plugins and javascript errors.

Coolio · 2011-12-23 18:31:49

crashing flash plugins/javascript errors? I don't get those. Send me a link to one where it crashes.

Different55 · 2011-12-23 20:23:12

Crashes? Well the flash plugin frequently crashes with fwin open, but there are others, too. Google consistently gives me script not responding errors.

Ratburntro44 · 2011-12-23 22:09:58

I love how FF used to do normal versions, then decided to play catch-up and speed through a bunch of version numbers. What's the point?

Different55 · 2011-12-24 05:52:05

Make idiots of themselves?

Coolio · 2011-12-24 08:15:57

I don't get any crashes of any sort, so... yeah. Maybe it's just your comp, not FF.

Ratburntro44 · 2011-12-24 09:09:32

The only thing that has ever caused anything on my computer to crash is flash plugin, so that wouldn't surprise me.

Different55 · 2011-12-24 16:30:25

Not my comp. I open 10 tabs with assorted flash and lotsa stuff in FF, BOOM, I crashed. Opera? Not even lagging.

Coolio · 2011-12-24 16:33:36

Well, there's your roblem. Who needs 10 tabs at once? The most I ever need is 4.

Different55 · 2011-12-24 17:35:29

You are not me. Usually there are 3 from other family members, and then I have about 3 per thing I'm doing. Like this morning there was 3 on javascript, 3 on 000webhost, and 3 on the forums. plus a few more. I was on Opera and not one lag was given that day. I can't code without having multiple tabs open. I have to glance back at previous scripts to make sure things are named right.

Coolio · 2011-12-24 18:13:36

Oh. Well, I'm on my own laptop, so I suppose I don't have the same problems.
