Why can I see the visual rich editor when using Apples Safari browser?
Description: The visual rich editor in the Write interface (aka “the WYSIWYG editor”) does not display when using Apple’s Safari browser. Reason and Solution: In early versions of Safari, the visual rich editor would cause the browser to crash immediately upon loading the Write interface. This was due to a bug in Safari, not WordPress. Since the WordPress developers had no way of correcting this, they chose to disable the visual rich editor for Safari users. At this point in time, there are three alternatives for affected users. One could upgrade to Safari 3.0.4 or higher and WordPress 2.3 or higher, use Firefox or Camino, or de-select “Users should use the visual rich editor by default” in Administration > Settings > Writing and install Dean’s FCKEditor For WordPress.
