Hi, all.

We have a user who is unable to access the Evergreen OPAC on her older 
Mac, running OS X 10.3, Safari 1.3.2 on dialup. Has anyone tried using 
Safari 1.3 with Evergreen, and experienced either positive or negative 
results?


I happen to have an old iMac running just that software!  ...luckily, no 
dialup though.


I can verify that at least in my tests, to a local server and to 
gapines, I received no search results.


On my server, I see the initial connection in the Apache log, the OPAC 
page loads normally, then I see the GET for the search, the OPAC screen 
updates to the Title Results page, then nothing...  No opensrf log 
activity, no Apache logging, nothing.


I took a quick poke at looking for a Javascript console, but early 
versions of Safari didn't offer much, and even following example 
wouldn't open up a console for me.

 I will suggest that the user upgrade to a more modern browser, but the
 only really modern broswer with support for OS X = 10.3.9 is the
 latest version of Camino, which is not a small download on dialup.

Brandon,

I've used Safari in the past.  I know there are issues with bookbags and 
probably some other small issues, but, if I recall, it generally works OK.  
What kind of problems is she having?
