If you use an accesskey (control + letter keyboard shortcut) on a button
element in the newly released Safari 1.3, Safari crashes1.
Just a word of warning for you Tasks Pro™ and Tasks users that are accustomed to hitting Ctrl + S to save tasks in Safari. If you haven’t already upgraded to 10.3.9 and use this functionality a lot, you might want to wait for this bug to be fixed.
Here is the test case.
Please don’t report this to me as a bug in Tasks Pro™ or Tasks, almost any time a browser crashes the bug is with the browser. A web page should not be able to cause a browser to crash.
- Your mileage may vary, but it crashes on the three machines we tested on. [back]
This post is part of the project: Tasks Pro™. View the project timeline for more context on this post.
I can confirm this bug is present in Safari 2.0 on Tiger as well.
Instant crash
Safari Bug Update
Today’s update to Safari fixes the accesskey on button crash. Yay!
