Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / May 2008Ominiweb and keychains are broken
I just bought Omniweb but I'm an idiot. I only tried Omniweb by visiting each site I frequent daily, once. I should have visited twice. Then I'd have discovered Omniweb asks if I want to save my passwords EVERY bloody time, despite me always saying yes. Plus it askes me if it's ok to use passwords already stored in the keychain, and then askes if I'd like to save them :-( ARRRRRGH!

You can view HTTP headers, edit source and redisplay, view the Web Inspector, block URLs by regular expression, alter the browser ID, and configure preferences differently for each web site. My BIG gripe is that cookies are broken on XMLHttpRequest communications. This causes some "Web 2.0" servers to respond with broken web pages or random logouts. It's a serious bug that makes OW unsuitable for anything but casual surfing. OW also inherits some bugs from Apple's WebKit. OW and Safari may crash or stop working when it encounters a self-signed SSL certificate. They both also send a bogus Content-Type header when a POST returns a SEE-OTHER code. This breaks JIRA. SignatureBlock Google's spam and enjoy Usenet again. Reply with Google and I won't hear from you.

I'm pretty sure you can do most of all of that with Firefox as well, with the right plug-in modules. SignaturePlease send all responses to the relevant news group.

Force Quit would not quit non responding programs. Had to restart every time. Disk Warrior 4.0 would not solve the problem or a permissions fix. After much tooling about, I discovered that dumping Omniweb solved the problem. I am back to Safari. Too bad. It had features which I liked. SignatureNever believe anything until it's officially denied. > I just bought Omniweb but I'm an idiot. I only tried Omniweb by visiting > each site I frequent daily, once.

Other than this broken keychain intergration I'm loving Omniweb *sighs* SignatureIf you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate. > I just bought Omniweb but I'm an idiot.

I keep the keychain control in the menu bar at work so I can manually fix it after waking from sleep. SignatureBlock Google's spam and enjoy Usenet again.
