Or just switch back to Safari for a few days if the problem makes things
unusable. I've not had that experience though.

Thanks, Chris and Nic, this is good to know. I assume that once
you've installed it, you can remove it if there are problems?
Thanks,

Hi,
Yep. That's of course a drawback. But mostly, I've never had issues
except that one time with multi-select list boxes, or the time when
VO kept saying "Selected edit".
For a VoiceOVer user, the advantages have been greater rather than
nonexistent.

I should note that what you're referring to is the nightly builds.
There is some small amount of risk as the nightly builds incorporate
the day's code changes which may or may not always work right. The
advantage is you get all the latest fixes, features and performance
enhancements. At certain points Apple then takes the webkit
framework and migrates it to Safari so eventually it gets there.
Once nice thing in the current webkit builds is a much improved
support for ARIA which is markup that makes web widgets much more
accessible. Not all sites are doing that yet but those that do get
no special behavior in Safari.

Hi,
Webkit is the underlying framework for Safari. That is what is
handling all HTML, at least on the Mac.
A lot of the time, stability with Webkit is increased if you
download the framework yourself and keep it up-to-date. The Apple
version is far out of date.
That's just a brief summary, but if something crashes, chances are
that getting a new version of Webkit fixes it.

Sorry all, if this has already been discussed, but I've been
really swamped the last couple of months, so I may have missed it.
What is Webkit?
Thanks,

Hi,
Yeah, I was wondering if you were talking to me for a second,
even though I haven't commented at all. lol
Well, I haven't noticed anything. In fact, Safari is better than
ever, and with the installation of Webkit, it's faster than I can
blink the proverbial eye. In fact, it's so blindingly fast that
you don't even see it.
That's true, even if I use the regular-type Safari, but it's a
bit slower. Not by much, though.
I suck at troubleshooting. This is because I never encounter the
issues everyone else encounters. I feel left out.

numerous times, and the folder won't open. It just keeps
saying< "applications button pressed," but doesn't open the
folder. I'm hoping someone who knows a lot more than I do
can make sense of the new issues to Apple Accesibility
better than I could.
