Hey Eric. You can just open up web kit like you would any other
application. If you want it to open up links from e-mails and the
like, go in to preferences, and under the general section, select web
kit for the default browser.
I probably won't do this myself because it seems quite buggy, though
that's to be expected from a nightly build. So far I've noticed that
it seems slower to load pages, the link chooser doesn't work, and it
doesn't make the VoiceOver page loaded noise. This last is a minor
thing I know, but I have gotten used to that noise being there.
Still though, it's great that people can now use those list boxes if
they encounter them. Hopefully this change will make it in to safari
in the not too distant future.

Hi greg, I'm a simple boy, smiles. What is the point of
downloading it if it can't be installed overtop of or used to
upgrade the version on my apple system? How do I test webpages with
it?

Aright folks,
I just downloaded the new nightly build of webkit and ran it. I
got the warning about running applications from a disc image and
hit the open button. A web page popped up saying, "thank you for
installing the nightly build of webkit", or words to that effect.
Nothing seems to have changed in safari though. How do I know I'm
running the newest build of webkit? Can I check that somewhere?
Thanks,
erik burggraaf

The nightly build of WebKit, from which we get Safari has fixed
the bug with selection boxes in web forms. This bug made some web
form controls invisible to VoiceOVer and has been a critical
issue for some time. Those affected by this may wish to download
the WebKit nightly build and try it out.
