Last year’s WebKit party was so bomb, they had to raise the terror alert level.

I know this isn’t a help forum, but I was hoping someone could direct me to a solution. I have been using nightly builds for 3 months now and it seems that none of them save my passwords. Am I missing something?
June 9th, 2007 at 1:11 pm
It’s an incompatibility between the version of Safari that ships with Mac OS X 10.4 (Safari v2.0.x) and the version of WebKit in the nightly builds. The implementation of form controls was substantially reworked in WebKit, and one side effect of this is that Safari changes are required to enable autocomplete to work. This should be resolved when WebKit is officially released by Apple.

Congratulations on the windows move… if there is a congratulations on building for windows… but congratulations on the growth in browser numbers! I look forward to building more standards sites with ease.
P.S. - send my regards to the apple.com design team on their move to a valid, tableless, semantic site. Brings a tear to my eye:)

Yes, congratulations. What an awesome move. I always feel nervous about posting something like what I’m about to say for legal reasons (Microsoft has very mean lawyers), but as someone who used to work on IE long long ago, you should have no technical problem beating Microsoft in the browser space. I don’t work there anymore, but when I left, the IE team was basically composed of mostly the worst remnants of a once great team.
As a bitter ex-employee, and a lover of computers, all of today’s announcements make me extremely happy. I’m posting this comment in the Safari 3 beta! (On a Mac, of course, let’s not be ridiculous.)

Why do I do this to myself on a blog where I can’t delete my comments? Why?
What I forgot to say above was that all opinions expressed by me are not representative of the truth or certanly not of any Microsoft trade secrets and merely represent an opinion I may or may not have had at any given time. Any statements made are unproveable and unquantifiable. I think I may be tired, and not in my right mind. Everything said above may be a blatant lie and I may have never actually worked for Microsoft at all. That post was merely for fictional entertainment purposes. Microsoft is great. All hail Bill! (I love you guys, really, call me!)
There, that should do it…

Congratulations to the whole team.
This was a great move. Read the arstech article. Party on!
