Safari RSS

Safari RSS 07/01/2004 01:46 PM

I haven't had a chance to talk about this, but I thought I'd again start by briefly clearing up a point of confusion. Safari RSS is not the name of the entire Safari browser on Tiger. It is the name of the RSS/Atom feature in Safari itself. If you pull down the About information in Safari on Tiger, you'll see that the version is 2.0.

An article about how NetNewsWire and Safari complement one another can be found at O'Reilly here.

I agree, although Safari really needs to be able to reuse windows for URLs sent from applications like NetNewsWire rather than always opening a new window every time.

Safari 1.2 bug seen here

Safari 1.2 bug seen here 02/12/2004 11:24 AM
We seem to have inadvertently revealed a bug in Safari 1.2 -- and we think we know specifically what Safari is doing wrong. The bug currently makes oatmeal of some of our layout elements. If not fixed, it could discombobulate sites that are much more important than ours.

Safari 1.1

Safari 1.1 10/28/2003 11:08 PM

Safari 1.1 is here. Those of you who picked up Panther can take it for a spin. This release is big step forward from 1.0, chock full of bugs fixes, improvements and UI refinements.

As far as new WebCore features, here's a few highlights:
(1) Better standards support. You'll find fixes for positioning bugs, overflow bugs, floats, tables, gzip support, generated content using ::before and ::after, DHTML. You name it, we've improved it.
(2) Speed. We're still fast, and we're only going to get faster.
(3) CSS2 support. In addition to all of the bug fixes to be more standards-compliant, we also added support for CSS2 properties like text-shadow and new display values like inline-block. Try using text-shadow in conjunction with ::selection. It's cool. :)
(3) Safari on Panther supports rgba values in CSS for specifying border, background, foreground and shadow colors.
(4) Support for the CSS3 opacity (using -khtml-opacity) property. Make entire blocks and inlines transparent without resorting to transparent PNGs.
(5) A complete implementation of the XUL box model. Safari on Panther supports the complete XUL box model, including horizontal and vertical boxes, the ability to flex, and the ability to reorder content and reverse content. If you're building canned content that you control using WebKit, you'll find a whole new range of layout possibilities at your disposal. Need to create dynamically sized headers and footers and flexible center content? The XUL box model can do that. Need to center an object within the viewport? The XUL box model can do that too.

And in case you're curious, here's what we've already got working post 1.1 in WebCore that you can look forward to:
(1) Support for the title attribute using tooltips
(2) The ability to tab to all controls in a Web page and to manipulate them from the keyboard.
(3) Support for table border collapsing.
(4) Support for the CSS cursor property.
... and a whole lot more ...

Enjoy the upgrade and as always send us your feedback (trackbacks preferred). We're listening.

Safari 1.3

Safari 1.3 04/16/2005 01:24 AM

Those of you running Panther can now update to 10.3.9. This update includes Safari 1.3 and new versions of WebKit, WebCore, and JavaScriptCore that contain thousands of improvements we've made to the engine since Safari 1.2.

What you are getting is all of the new standards support, new WebKit capabilites, site compatibility fixes and performance optimizations that are also present in Safari 2.0 for Tiger. The layout engines for the two are virtually identical.

Here are some of the highlights:

Page Load Performance
Safari 1.3 loads pages overall 35% faster than 1.2 as measured by IBench. In addition to improving the overall page load, Safari 1.3 will display content sooner than 1.2 did, so that subresources don't hold up the initial display of the page.

JavaScript Performance
We have substantially improved the performance of the JavaScript engine in Safari. I encourage you to check out Safari 1.3 on this benchmark for example to see the improvement relative to 1.2.

HTML Editing
Safari 1.3 supports HTML editing, both at the Objective-C WebKit API level and using contenteditable and designMode in a Web page. The new Mail app in Tiger uses WebKit for message composition. You can write apps that make use of WebKit's editing technology and deploy them on Panther and Tiger.

Compatibility and Security
Compatibility and security are our number one priority in WebCore, and Safari 1.3 has many important compatibility fixes. For example, percentage heights on blocks, tables and cells now work much better in Safari 1.3. min/max-width/height support has been added. More of the table-related CSS properties are now supported. DOM methods like getComputedStyle are now supported.

The DOM Exposed
The entire level 2 DOM has been exposed a public API in Objective-C. This means various holes have been filled in Safari's DOM level 2 support. In addition to exposing the DOM to Objective-C, the JS objects that wrap DOM objects can also be accessed from Objective-C, allowing you to examine and edit the JS objects themselves to inject properties onto them that can then be accessed from your Web page.

XSLT
Safari 1.3 on Panther now supports XSLT. 10.3.9 includes libxslt, and Safari uses this excellent library to handle XSLT processing instructions it encounters in Web pages.

Plugin Extensions
For those of you writing WebKit apps, a new Objective-C WebKit plugin API is supported that lets you put Cocoa widgetry into the Web page more easily. In addition enhancements to the Netscape Plugin API (made in conjunction with Mozilla Foundation) have been implemented for plugins that require cross-browser compatibility.

Did I mention it's really really fast? :)

In case you're curious about differences between the Tiger and Panther versions of the engine, they mostly have to deal with frameworks that changed underneath WebKit. For example we have new faster image decoders on Tiger (that also handle PNGs correctly), so you'll find that Tiger fixes some of the PNG gamma issues that will still exist on Panther. In addition the new decoders are incredibly fast and are now run on a separate thread on multi-processor machines on Tiger.

The network layer has also been improved on Tiger, so this may be another source of differences in behavior between the two operating systems. Overall, however, it's likely that content and applications you develop with WebKit will behave identically on the two operating systems.

Let us know what you think.

XUL in Safari

XUL in Safari 10/29/2003 12:12 AM

Safari 1.1 is included with the new release of Mac OS X, Panther. From Dave Hyatt's list of Safari 1.1 features:

A complete implementation of the XUL box model. Safari on Panther supports the complete XUL box model, including horizontal and vertical boxes, the ability to flex, and the ability to reorder content and reverse content. If you're building canned content that you control using WebKit, you'll find a whole new range of layout possibilities at your disposal. Need to create dynamically sized headers and footers and flexible center content? The XUL box model can do that. Need to center an object within the viewport? The XUL box model can do that too.

With Microsoft's alternative to XUL seemingly a few years away, are Apple looking to beat them to it with an implementation that's compatible with Mozilla?

Safari and Chimera

Safari and Chimera 01/14/2003 02:28 PM

The rumors about Apple releasing its own branded browser circulated for some months now. With the hiring of David Hyatt at Apple, one of the main developers of Chimera and Mozilla, the expectation was the new browser will be based on Gecko. It now turns out Safari is based on Konqueror's rendering engine. Quite interesting!

It would be very interesting to see the evolution of Safari. One major feature missing from Safari is tabbed browsing, which was designed and implemented by David. His description of the story and how it was seen by marketing people at that time is rather amusing.

What are the long term implications for Mozilla of Apple's decision to go without Gecko? With the current polarization of developers around Apple's new MacOS X, is Mozilla going to loose its relevance as the "other" browser on the market? Can Apple fight this browser battle they've just entered? What will be Microsoft's response to this?

I think this year will be an interesting one to watch...

Safari Hates Me

Safari Hates Me 01/31/2003 03:59 PM

I've been trying my hardest to get the dynamic portions of this site to work in Safari. It doesn't seem to be a problem with the scripts, Safari just doesn't recognize my second Javascript file. It all works great in every browser but Safari, but anything I do in my second JS file has no effect on the page. I've tried everything I can think of, but I'm running out of ideas. If the site acts a little funny in the next couple hours it may be because I'm pulling my hair out and messing around with the Javascript to try and get it to work fine. Other sites are rendering Javascript as complex as mine in Safari without issue, hence I'm convinced Safari just has it out for me. I'll update when I have more information, and less of a headache. PLEASE leave me a comment or an email if you have any ideas.

Safari, RSS, NetNewsWire

Safari, RSS, NetNewsWire 06/28/2004 02:57 PM

“So, Brent, what do you think of Apple putting RSS reading into Safari?”

The first thing to know is that we have no intention of stopping NetNewsWire development.

The second thing is, I’m not surprised. I half-expected it last year, and this year I’d heard rumors (even seen some screen shots) before WWDC, so it’s no shock. Syndication is such great technology, it makes sense for Apple—and Microsoft—to add RSS reading to their systems.

The RSS reader in Safari is not a full-featured newsreader, at least from what I could tell by the demo. For instance, it doesn’t appear to remember what items you’ve read or tell you how many unread items you have. And some of the other features that it does have—such as RSS searching—are coming in NetNewsWire 2.0.

So... even with Safari’s RSS reader, there is still a need for newsreaders that do more. (Much more.)

What I like about this announcement is that it popularizes syndication. Despite its fast growth, there’s still a huge education job to do. The average Mac user doesn’t know about the technology yet, but putting it in Safari means they will know about it, and it gives the technology a kind of validation, an Apple seal of approval, for the people who are slower to look at new technologies.

It also may mean that Apple will evangelize RSS to publications that haven’t yet adopted it. Which is great: it’s not something we have much time for, and when CNN hears from Apple it carries a bit more weight than when they hear from Ranchero Software.

This could trigger a shake-out in the Mac OS X newsreaders market. There are a dozen or so readers right now, but by this time next year there may be Safari and just a few others. (NetNewsWire will be one of them.)



So I don’t feel as we’ve been Sherlocked. But it does look to me as if the Konfabulator folks might have something to say about Dashboard.
