Safari's Frustrating Bug
March 23, 2008 . Posted in apple.
There is one thing that often makes me close Safari and fire up Firefox: missing link highlighting.
Here is how you can reproduce it in your Safari if you don't already know what I mean:
- right click a link and open it in a new tab
- scroll in the original tab to any other link and you will see that it doesn't get highlighted as a link anymore
Maybe I sound fussy but when I use Google Reader I really hate this behavior.
Cheers…
p.s. to get the link highlighting back all you need to do is click somewhere in the original tab.

Never seen that bug before… But you’re right. However if you open links in new tabs by using CMD-Click (as I do religiously) the bug doesn’t manifest itself. Its only if you do a right-click, ‘Open link in new tab’. Try it
