Hi dbs,

I'm not Jill but I had similar issues with Google last year; Google  
Docs and Spreadsheets doesn't work with Safari and while the Google  
site is helpful enough to suggest getting Firefox, it isn't really a  
good alternative.

I would suggest Camino for those on the Mac who want another  
alternative; it uses the Gecko HTML engine (same as Firefox) but is a  
lot more Mac-like (or so I'm told, I don't use it).

The WYSIWYG editor issue is the only one I had using Safari on the  
Arisia site. I ended up not needing to edit much there so I just took  
sending everything to Ben or Jasra. :-)

I am very tempted to try the Safari 3 Beta and see if it resolves any  
of the Google and Drupal issues.
