Safari Error
In safari, hover your pointer over the google-searche box. The tool-tip says "Type a word of phrase, then press Return."

Hehe! Typo Typo.

Unless this is something i have screwed up.

Mine says 'of' too - what version of Safari are you using?

I think that's the latest non-developer version - same here, and it says 'of'.

I wonder if [info]laurenselway is either using a preview of 10.4, or an older version, maybe from 10.2?

Haha, I actually emailed them about that a couple months ago, and they still haven't fixed it...lazies. It would take like 20 seconds to fix!

Probably a different version of safari.

Someone in this thread says that it was fixed in "the last Panther update".

And a few posts in this thread seems to suggest that you can fix it yourself, if it bothers you that much, by editing a certain file.

Funny. I don't have the typo ;)



However, it made me notice that Safari is only partially localized (at least to Danish). Most of the menu is still in English, but for example tooltips and preferences are in Danish. Hmmmm...

safari in german

Also the german version is strange. It says "Suchbegriffe eingeben und Zeilenschalter drücken" but I don`t think that anyone used the word "Zeilenschalter" ever before.
