[Building Sakai] [Using Sakai] Recently encountered issues in Sakai 2.8

[Ziegler, Jeff]

Yeah, IIRC, the big problem with Safari was that it didn't render the toolbar in the ubiquitous FCK editor.  These days I see no more browser-related issues with Safari than for any other mainstream browser.  We support Safari "unofficially", because it's not "officially" tested against.

The question of which browsers we officially support has been a topic of interest here at UMIch, lately.  Should we support the browsers most used by our users or continue to default to what's actually tested against?

To dispel fears about using Safari in Sakai, I use it almost exclusively and am yet to find an issue. This has been the case for several years (Sakai 2.6 or so onwards).

cheers,
Steve

Hi Warwick.

We encourage the use of browsers that are officially tested by the community. That's all.
