[jQuery] Re: Safari 2.0.4 not passing the jQuery test
I understand Safari's limitations, but saying it's compatible sets an expectation that it (all of it) will work. I consistently had Safari crash when trying to use the html() and replaceWith() functions. If you're aware of Safari's issues and only run the test suite in pieces, then it'd be nice if you could publish what the pieces are so that we (the jQuery using public) know what we should be looking out for. Thanks for the reply, even if we disagree on compatible. :-) Jeff On Jun 19, 9:43 am, John Resig [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jeff - Safari2 has serious memory issues that are impossible to work around - simply loading and executing too much JavaScript will cause it to crash (as you see with the test suite).

[jQuery] Re: Safari 2.0.4 not passing the jQuery test
I believe you misinterpreted the statement by John. The *entire* test suite passes in Safari. To overcome the memory issues they need to break the test suite into multiple smaller sets of tests and run those. If the entire suite is run it causes Safari to crash due to the applications memory management problems.
