Safari OSX vs Safari Windows:difference?

[s1nykuL]

Is there any difference, with the exception of missing fonts, between the rendering of web pages in Safari on Windows and OSX?

To put it another way; Do I need to test my html/css code in Safari on both OSX and Windows to be sure pages will render correctly?

enable the developer menu, and you can change the user agent to osx

Thanks I will check that out tomorrow. I presume this change makes the browser render the page as if the browser was running on OSX.

'cos sometimes the target audience is not serious people. It's consumers and users who may not be smart enough to realise that an OS default browser can be changed.

Those that use computers and know jack about them vastly out number those of us that do.

I did not know Chrome and Safari used the same core though, thanks for that bit of info.

Chrome on OSX has a slightly different User-Agent footprint. So it would only generate false positive's.
