At work at the moment I’m testing the appearance of the site we are working on with Safari on Windows, with the current version we’re using being 3.1.1. We’re also working pretty closely with XML and their schemas as part of the web development process.
Happily working through my day as usual, I need to view an XML file so double click as usual to have a look at it, expecting our usual XML editor to load (no names - I don’t like it and its really expensive) but guess what, Safari has decided that for some reason it should handle XML files now! What? Why?! Its not as if XML is some little-known file type that hardly anyone knows or uses.
This is on top of the recent abuse Apple received over trying to sneak Safari onto people’s computers via an iTunes update. This sort of activity combined with stealing file associations (one of my pet hates) is pretty bad form - somehow Apple get away with it though; had this been Microsoft everyone would have been up in arms ranting about how awful Microsoft are!
