Has Safari 3.1 broken Gmail?
The Safari 3.1 update has just landed on my Macbook pro. It’s quicker, more compatible, has Javascript that seems to work more consistently, but Gmail has gone decidedly odd.
I’ve written a subject in an outgoing email, pressed tab to start writing the body and despite the cursor showing up in the body the text I now write is still in the subject… It’s driving me bonkers.
Please Apple I don’t want to return to Firefox for day to day stuff, please fix this asap.
Interestingly the admin for Wordpress seems to work now, which is great. As I find more stuff, I’ll post, I’m kind of hoping this is me being deficient in coffee or something…
Update: It seems to be something to do with the shift key… Apart from that, it seems to be just me… Anyone else having similar problems?

I found a solution: while composing a mail switch to simple view without advanced formatting and then it works!

Weird.
