Surfin’ Safari

The Star Seven Hack

Posted by Dave Hyatt on Monday, February 11th, 2008 at 2:09 pm

For those of you using the star seven CSS hack to target current or older versions of WebKit, this parsing bug has been closed in the latest WebKit nightlies. Acid3 specifically tests for this, so any browser that wants to be compliant with Acid3 will have to fix this CSS parsing bug.

    Good to see bugs being removed from browsers, and the developers sharing this information. While I haven’t personally used this parsing bug - or any for Safari - it’s reasons like these why I use Safari as my browser of choice for checking development work.

    Great work team, latest nightlies are brilliant! It’ll be good to see another release of Safari soon.
