I don't use Safari at all anymore except for quick checks for web functionality on pages I'm writing. Safari sucks on any web pages with JavaScript. Whether that's JavaScript's fault or Safaris, I don't know, but Firefox works fine on those pages. Safari is also a giant memory hog. I've had many instances of it taking up ALL the available memory on my PowerBook - over 400mb in some cases. Roger

The talk in many Mac forums backs up your statement about JavaScript. Also, I noticed that when I was on the Roxio pages yesterday researching Toast 7, Safari had a real hard time parsing their pages. They have a .jhtml extension - Java within HTML I think. Although I'm not sure I'd blame Safari for that...
