Hi Guys,

I'm running Lion and noticed that site search doesn't seem to work in Safari and finding that the preview of forum posting looks rather messed up. Just wanted to give a heads up.  I haven't compared this with Safari in Snow Leopard.  Also disclaimer, I'm not using the latest build of Lion.

Are you using any ad blockers?

No 3rd party ad blockers.  I am using the built in popup blocker though.

Sorry, just did another quick dig through my options and I do have an adblocker extension installed. However, the weird results when I try and post with Lion's Safari shouldn't have anything to do with that.  By weird I mean the appearance of new entries when you preview or post.
cheers.

It may have everything to do with that. Have you tried with ad block switched off?

I don't see any problem here.

Hey freitasm,

I turned off extensions in the Safari for the build that I have and did a post from there as well as from FF so you can see the difference of what it looks like when i post.  It might be just because my build of Lion needs to be updated.
