Need to chew some CPU with Safari 1.1?

(5:33 pm) Tags: [General]

Simply navigate over to my test page, and you should see your cpu (use Activity Monitor) shoot through the roof.

I tried to reduce it as much as possible. If I remove any of the widths, heights, or even the form tag, the problem goes away. Also, if I move the form tag above the table, everything seems OK.

Note that the form did have some content (inputs), but it was not necessary to reproduce the problem.

I hope this is enough information for the Safari team to reproduce. I have trackbacked this to the Surfin Safari Safari 1.1 post.

Rich Text Editor for Safari?

(2:42 pm) Tags: [Software]

Since my company has implemented a rich text editor for IE using contentEditable, I have been looking for a rich text editor solution for Mozilla. Googled most of the day, and found various hacks that worked in the past. Then I stumbled onto the conversion from IE contenteditable to midas notes. They even have a demo.

So, the question for all you lazywebbers out there, how do I go about finding/implementing a rich text editor for Safari? Caveats: 1, it cannot be an applet (enterprise security concerns/mandates), 2 - Must be extensible (I will be adding redlining capability to it), and 3, no Flash.

Let me know if you have any solutions to the Safari rich text editor dilemma.
