jQuery crashing Safari 2
Friday, October 3rd, 2008I thought I’d write a specific entry concerning jQuery and Safari 2. Others may be wondering why Safari 2 is crashing when trying to run some elements of jQuery. In a recent project I need to write simple caption strings into a <p> paragraph and was using html().
I first assumed that one of the fade transitions was causing problems (that’s another story!). I eventually narrowed down the problem and found that html() was causing Safari 2.0.4 to crash. In this case it was easy enough to switch to text() to write in the string and that solved it!
