    I am giving safari a whirl instead of firefox.

    I have to admit it looks a lot nicer; the main thing that puts me off is the inability to synchronise bookmarks as easily as with foxmarks.

    aaaaaanyway... when I open a bookmark via quicksilver in firefox, it opens in a new tab. in safari it opens in a new window. anyone know how to change this? :confused:

    How'd you do it? I'm thinking about using Safari more often and would like to know how to make it behave more like FF tabs. I've left Safari as my default browser so it comes up quite often and I get annoyed with windows that pop up instead of showing up in tabs.

    Awesome! I was wondering the same thing myself!

    Now, if there were only a way to set Safari NOT to automatically download files (give me the chance to say "OK!"), I'd be in heaven!

    Any solution?
