Safari 3.1 released

by Stephen Chinnadorai on Mar 18, 2008 at 06:06 PM

SafariThis Tuesday’s Apple release is not a hardware product, but a much-needed update to its Safari browser: 3.1. The update “is recommended for all Safari users and features improvements to stability, compatibility, JavaScript performance and security.” Some new improvements in Safari 3.1 include:

  • Better JavaScript performance, site compatibility and application stability
  • Support for CSS 3 web fonts, transforms and transitions
  • Several developer features such as access to Web Inspector and Network Timeline, support for custom user access string and improved snipper editor
  • Double clicking on the Tab Bar opens new tab (goodbye, Twicetab—you’ll be missed)
  • Opens Download and Activity window in current Space
  • Shows Caps Lock icon in password fields
  • Improved security

If you haven’‘t already downloaded it, you can do so by opening Software Update (Mac or Windows), or alternatively going to Apple’s Safari website.

    Twicetab will NOT be missed because Safari 3.1 don’t have the option to close tab with the middle click in ANY place of tab.

    ;)

    Caju, sorry I took a while to get back to you. I’ve never actually used Twicetab before, only seen what it does. I guess if closing a tab by clicking anywhere on it is a big feature for you, it won’t be missed.
