A number of our clients have been trying out Safari for Windows and finding that EditLive! doesn't load, instead falling back to a standard text area and thinking that we don’t support Safari at all. The reality is that Safari comes in two distinct versions - one for Mac OS X which we support and one for Windows which we don’t. While the two versions look almost identical, there are some key differences around the way they handle applets which is currently preventing EditLive! from running in the Windows version. We also want to make sure we’ve completely tested it out so there aren’t any nasty surprises.

So to be clear - Safari on Mac OS X is completely supported and works great. Safari on Windows isn’t yet supported and will use a text area instead.
