[cosmo-dev] Safari 2

[Bobby Rullo]

I disagree. I think what would really scare people off is just seeing  
the "processing..." link and nothing else. Or just a blank page.

It's not really possible to just let people get a certain way, and  
then when it breaks to warn them. The only safe way is to warn them up  
front. Maybe this is what you are saying though.

Anyhow, this is not just for Safari 2, this would be for all known  
unsupported browsers.
