The first mention I found is here: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/changeset/2106 Later they need to work around the fix from prototype: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/2868 Apple says they fixed it in WebKit before March 2005: http://lists.apple.com/archives/webcore-dev/2005/Mar/msg00005.html Safari 2.0.4 was released almost a year later. I think we can asume it was fixed by then. Does anyone ever test prototype with Safari 2.0.4?
