Safari and WP 2.5 finally in step
Not crippling or llfe-threatening, but the inability of Safari to play nice with WordPress’ visual editor has been, at best, annoying. The last major release of Safari said that all things with visual editors were to be fixed, but that didn’t take. And, I’m not sure who to blame or praise today, but the issue is no more.
The major problem for me was that the code from the visual editor wasn’t translating over to the hard-code on the page. The result was a blog post with no <p> tags and one long, long paragraph.
I’m okay with long paragraphs in real life but not when I didn’t intend it to be so.
So, with the recent changes in WordPress 2.5, lots of bugs got Raided and at least the small browser demographic that I belong to uses Safari, it’s time to find something else to complain about.
Kudos WordPress team: the interface update is cleaner and so is my code (looks like the move to TinyMCE 3.0 is the fix here for Safari). Take a break, okay?
