Thanks.

Websites a free to style form elements as they wish. When certain types of styling are used it becomes difficult to apply them to the aqua themed widgets, so the engine falls back to a simpler theme which the sites styles are then applied to. See http://webkit.org/blog/17/the-new-form-controls-checkbox-2/ for more information. @Mr Zippy: That is by design. Websites a free to style form elements as they wish.

Just in case you don't some form widgets are Aqua, some aren't. This is not random, so in some contexts form widgets are not show as Aqua buttons. Example (Aqua): http://ebay.com Search and select form widgets are normal. Example (non-Aqua): http://centerstageproject.com/forum/misc.php?action=search Search and 2 select form widgets are non-aqua.

The only thing I can think of is that I have an updated version of SQLite installed on both systems. Not sure why one browser would crash and not the other though.

That means that you can use one click to get into the toolbar menus and then roll around through all your different folders and sub-folders. Currently, Safari insists on a new click to get to every different folder menu. Also, I'd love to see middle-click in a folder menu from the toolbar spawn a new tab. It works right for single bookmark items, but it breaks when you try it from a folder menu. I submitted both as Feature Requests, but figured I throw them on here in case other people want to request it too...

Surely you aware you are using beta software? That's the whole point of a public beta, to help find bugs and iron them out. Yes it's annoying but "Apple sort it out" kind of comments are a bit uncalled for. It's a beta and they will fix bugs as you report them! @edinhsdsu, why are you getting irate about bugs?
