Browser Incompatibilities

Comments:
- here.
I’ve spent most of the day tweaking stuff, and have come across the following issues:
- Safari has no ability to find either the cursor position or the selection in a TextArea. This means that Quicktags will not work under Safari. I’m going to file a bug report with Apple over this one, as it’s rather crap.
- Neither Safari nor Mozilla support
onTimer()
, which means my plan to have the Comment Preview update every 3 seconds rather than on every keypress will not work. I still need to try to find a way to make the Preview faster on Mozilla. It’s fine on Safari.
I’ve also spent a fair amount of time playing around with trying to get comments to appear on the front page, but I think I need to be able to access the SQL database directly, and run a query in order to do this. And store the result in a variable. But I can’t figure out how (if it’s even possible) to do this.
