OmniWeb 5.10.2 – Oct 25, 2010
- Compatibility
- Fixed issues with stale cookies getting resurrected when loading cached resources which had originally been sent with a cookie. This fixes some session problems with a number of sites, including sites based on the latest version of Best Practical's RT.
- Fixed a bug where explicitly downloading a file wouldn't send the correct set of cookies. (This meant that you would sometimes try to download a link or image and would end up with a login page rather than the expected file.)
- The agent string now includes the version of OmniWeb to improve compatibility with browser sniffers like the one on www.google.com. Also include Safari 5 as an available agent to spoof.
- Integrated the Safari 4.0.4 version of WebKit. (We looked at integrating the Safari 5 WebKit, but that was more destabilizing and we wanted to ship this stable build first.)
- Worked around a WebKit bug which was breaking Gopher Search.
- Fixed a bug with OmniWeb's handling of Unicode URLs sent by other applications (such as shortened Daring Fireball links from Twitterific).
- Interface
- Opening a page in a separate tab now correctly updates the visited link color in all other tabs and windows.
- The Bookmarks menu no longer has two separators in a row following Favorites on Snow Leopard.
- The Delete key once again deletes entries in bookmarks, history, and downloads.
- Fixed a bug where source files created within Omniweb were being quarantined as if they were downloaded from the internet.
- In the Print dialog, the Clip pagination setting now correctly scales content from web coordinates (96dpi) to print coordinates (72dpi). (This means that web content which specifies that it's 5.0 inches wide will now be sent to the printer as exactly 5.0 inches wide.)
- In the Print dialog, you also now have the option to print without margins, so you can print a web page which is designed to exactly fill a piece of paper.
- Fixed an issue where the services menu wasn't being populated with options.
- Fixed an issue where using services that are meant to effect selected text in the web page were instead just providing the page title and URL
- The tab drawer now remembers whether it's open on the normal side or the alternate side (rather than right or left), so you can change your preference and have all your existing workspaces switch sides.
- Fixed a long-standing bug where a workspace window's drawer preference could be ignored if the window was close enough to the edge of the screen that the drawer would no longer fit on that side. (OmniWeb will always makes room for the drawer when opening it, but the system didn't realize this so it was changing the drawer's preferred edge.)
- Stability
- Fixed a crash when trying to add or remove auto-fill terms.
- Made the built-in software update a little more robust.
- Fixed a crash triggered by using AppleScript to get the source of a tab which doesn't have any source data (which you can reproduce with "get source of (make new tab)").
- Fixed some memory leaks.
- Localizations
- Updated the German localization.
- Updated the French localization.
- Gave the text at the bottom of the French Tab and Window preference pane more room to prevent it from being cut off.
