Apple updates Safari

by Simon Aughton on November 19, 2010

Apple has updated Safari, addressing issues in several key areas of browser performance.

Fixes include: more accurate Top Hit results in the Address Field; more accurate results in Top Sites; more reliable pop-up blocking; improved stability when typing into search and text input fields on Facebook; improved stability when using JavaScript-intensive extensions; and improved stability when using VoiceOver with Safari. The update also fixes an issue that could cause content delivered with the Flash 10.1 plug-in to overlap webpage content.

Apple has also addressed more than two dozen security vulnerabilities.

Safari 5.0.3 for Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later and Safari 4.1.3 for OS X 10.4.11 are available via Software Update.
