Safari changes in 10.4.4

Jan 11, 09:40 am

The Mac OS 10.4.4 update is now available, and Apple lists the following as the changes specific to Safari:

  • Safari now displays certain documents that have text/plain headers as plain text rather than treating them as HTML. * On certain websites, such as Telia Webmail, buttons on a page might overlap in Safari; this update resolves the issue.
  • Text within a nested HTML table’s cells (such as a web-based form) no longer disappears when you click it.
  • Addresses an issue in which some websites, such as www.cbsnews.com, could cause CPU usage to spike unnecessarily, or cause Safari to stop responding, unless Safari’s Enable JavaScript preference was deselected.
  • Resolves an issue in which Safari could unexpectedly quit if you tried to save a web page which includes an inline PDF file as a Web Archive.
  • Addresses an issue that could cause Safari to unexpectedly quit when filling out forms on some websites
  • .Mac now syncs which RSS feed items you have and haven’t read in Safari.

That last one sounds useful!
