Safari 1.3 and 2.0 support coming soon

FreeTextBox (like all other JavaScript HTML editors) supports browsers that have the 'contentEditable' attribute enabled and the 'document.execCommand' method. IE 5.0 for Windows was the first to enable this, then Mozilla started supporting it with their 2003/06/24 build. Now, Safari 1.3 for Mac OSX 10.3.9 and Safar 2.0 for Mac OSX 10.4 (Tiger) has enabled some support for (original post, example editor)

I am working to enable Safari 1.3 and 2.0 support for the next version of FreeTextBox. It's a fun challenge and will hopefully broaden ASP.NET and FreeTextBox's usefulness.

Update: Just FYI, Safari support (if I can get it working) will probably be pretty spotty. Right now, it appears Safari looses focus on selected text when a button is pressed!
