Walkaround does not work in Safari #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
In Safari 5.1.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8, neither walkaround nor Google Wave work.  
They both put the "Safari Web Content" process in a busy loop, leaving *all* 
tabs (not just walkaround) unusable.  It seems pretty clear that this is a 
browser bug.  As far as I can tell, this is a regression that came with 
Safari's process split; it used to work fine.  I haven't tried to find a way to 
work around it in (other than not using Safari); I'm hoping that it will go 
away in a future Safari release.

Similar problem on Mac OS 10.7.2.

Workaround: Use Chrome or Firefox.

Seems to work now, in both 5.1.2 and 5.1.5.  Not sure what changed.  Maybe the 
IE-related fixes also work around the Safari crash.
