Why can't Linkys fix the way the menus render for people that use Safari? What I mean that you get page code showing up on the pull down. This wasn't always broken and started showing up sometime 2 years ago. I once tried contacting Linkys about it, and it's almost like they developed an entire corporate structure so the customer can never talk to a customer service rep or technician. I just gave up on it. But still, I'm surprised with all the new Mac users out there that they haven't addressed this issue.

Why Can't They Fix The Menus for Safari Users? - Mayhem!
This is definitely a Safari issue - it doesn't occur on any other browser I have tried. It started happening around 7/2005, and I reported the issue to Apple (I have a developer account and reported via their developer bug reporter) - it has yet to be fixed. It's obviously not a major issue, and c'mon, how often are you managing your router? But agreed - this is the Safari team not following the standards which Firefox does an amazing job of doing, hence the big (and getting bigger) switch to Firefox.Tuesday, May 30 2006 @ 09:07 AM PDT
Why Can't They Fix The Menus for Safari Users? - afterhours
It isn't necessarily a Linksys problem. There are a lot of old conventions Apple uses in Safari that have been deprecated or not fully fixed -- a LOT. Maybe if Apple stuck to w3c RFCs for browsers, Safari wouldn't be broken in so many ways.Reply to This
