My first attempt ended in a crash of Safari and then not being able to access the blog entry. So let's try again







I guess there are some serious support issues for Safari.

  1. I tried to type inside this text area - the textarea does not get acknowledged in Safari as a textarea. It is not recognized at all.
  2. So I tried an image. That's when I noticed the dialog window for adding images is covered by the main textarea. This typically means they are floating divs with CSS and using z-index as well.
  3. Same story with tables and pretty much the formatting doesn't work due to the textarea not being able to highlight or work with text at all.
  4. The image at the bottom of the form does allow the "Browse" button either.

In conclusion, since I had to resort to writing this in the HTML mode, that this doesn't pass my useability test for WYSIWYG text editors, yet.
