A comment on the problem "Comments counter shows Zero" in JS-Kit:

I still have .5 second latency, but the numbers are at least showing up.

It just doesn't seem right to load the page with a count of 0 and wait for the call to be answered with the actual count. Loading no number at all would be better. Maybe I'm being nit-picky. – Jimi, on August 27, 2009 03:31

A comment on the question "How about a sticky Date-picker?" in Slife Labs:

I was just making the point that the date picker should be sticky when savings activities in week or month view from the Applications or Web & Docs page. As it is now, the date settings revert to default "on save".

This would seem more critical than stickiness between pages. I guess. – Jimi, on August 24, 2009 15:26

I think 'on save' when assigning activities would be the biggest improvement right now. Moving between pages would be nice, but that might not be true for all users.

A comment on the problem "Comments counter shows Zero" in JS-Kit:

I'm a bit confused. It seems the page loads with 0 comments on the counter. Should I not expect the page to load with an accurate comment count?

Thanks. – Jimi, on August 23, 2009 03:47

My comment counter just keeps changing from "0" to "n" to "0". Lather, rinse, repeat.

How about a sticky Date-picker?

When working with a date range in the web app (e.g. assigning activities at month end or reviewing usage), shouldn't the dates selected in the date-picker be sticky when moving from Dashboard > Notes > Applications > Web & Documents?

Restarted Safari. GTG.

Yup, the error doesn't happen now as I can no longer map Activities to Applications.

Should I not expect that functionality at this time?

What/why is Error/Message 747 in Safari 4.0.1 when saving Activities?

After assigning and saving a new activity I received a dialogue with URL and 747? I checked the activity to ensure it saved—it did. I was also able to replicate the message a second time.

So, not sure this is a problem or nuisance (or some wonderful piece of information I am incapable if interpreting), but since a QSW didn't answer I figured I'd start a thread.

Thanks!

Same problem here.

Thanks to this thread, I turned off Airport, launched EventBox, deselected the auto-expand URL pref, and am back in action again.

Think Milend has his smoking gun.

Yes, it worked fine in all other browsers; including Safari this time. :-/



I'm always 'that guy'. I'll pay closer attention and if I replicate it again will let you know how.

Guess that screen shot will help...

Aha! Its the 'ole invisible X! He's struck again! Er, he's struck again with cloaking shields? After submitting the comment above it was clear something else was afoot in Safari (3.1.2).

Attached is screen shot after 'submit'. By guessing where the 'X' should be I moused over and sure 'nuff, it was there. Sorta.

I've attached the screenshot. Will check it out from FF and IE, too.

No cancel option on the Feedback Widget?

Really really really cool. Really. But...

...no 'cancel' option for the Feedback Widget? (or I'm too dumb to find it). I can't 'X' out of the greybox? Or too dumb to find it? Either way, low usability score on that one point. Everything else is stellar.
