Safari doesnt show any downloads...

Ok, Im not sure if anyone has had problems with Mac OSX and the Apple Safari browser... but you cannot download any manuals, presets, or software updates with it... You have to use either Netscape or IE.

Keyboardcontrollers,

I've also have noticed a problem using Apple's Safari browser on the Moog website. What I have found is that the Moog website doesn't seem to respond correctly to selected menu items embedded in the page. Specifically, if I select the SOFTWARE menu item on the 50th anniversary MMV page, I don't get to the software page.
:-(

Oddly, using Safari on other sites works correctly and I can't recall ever having any problems with it. I've used Safari to download MP3's, docs and other compressed files from other sites without a hitch.

I'm running Panther (10.3.2) on a dual 1GHz G4, with Safari 1.2

Bottom line, I use IE for the Moog site.

Cheers,

On my Mac, I have 3 browsers. Netscape, IE4.5, and IE6 because each one has a flaw which it wont let me access some sites, or crashes my computer. its a bit inconvenient, and one of the problems with using Macs on the internet.
