Description: The Quicktag buttons in the Write interface do not display when using Apple’s Safari browser. Reason and Solution: In early versions of Safari, the Quicktag buttons would function, but not as intended. 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 Quicktag buttons for Safari users. At this point in time, there are three alternatives for affected users. One could upgrade to Safari 2.0.4 or higher and WordPress 2.0.7 or higher, use Firefox or Camino, or (for earlier versions of WordPress) remove the if statement on line 1085 and the word “else” on line 1092 of /wp-admin/admin-functions.php .
