SafariNoTimeout 1.0
Well people, I got completely frustrated with Safari timing out with this stupid 60 second timeout message whenever I try to access eSellerate sales reports and other similar db-driven pages, so this was born in about an hour -  Introducing SafariNoTimeout 1.0 - a haxie (that doesn't requires APE, btw) that sets the connection timeout in Safari to 10 minutes (or different value if you feel like doing Download @ http://www.unsanity.net/safari-no-timeout-10.dmg Feel free to comment, but please don't ask me to fix this or that in Safari - Safari team in general and Dave do a great job on that on their own!

Umm, have you not heard about the latest Safari builds? It has had tabs for well over 2 1/2 months now. Posted by: Surely, you are kidding...right? on April 13, 2003 12:31 PMA) I was kidding. Thank you thank you thank you! It's so annoying when I'm trying to chug through my Movable Type database in power-user mode and Safari times out on me. This is perfect! Posted by: Scottish on April 13, 2003 9:34 PMjust the thing I needed.. tried to figure out how to crack that timeout thingie - no luck of course. On another subject: I'm viewing this page with a nice Welcome Safari User visual below the disclaimer. Gotta say my 'Safari' runs in licensed mode only and is v444 right now. Still no tabs though. Posted by: Ton on April 14, 2003 6:58 AMGuys, CHECK SOFTWARE UPDATE. Safari Final Beta 2 v73 has been publicly available for hours now! Posted by: Jason Anderson on April 14, 2003 4:22 PMI presume this works with Safari 1.0? I can't think of why something so simple would be broken by a mere golden master. Posted by: Aaron on June 23, 2003 8:49 PMThis utility is the best haxie for Safari that I have ever seen!!! thanx alot! Posted by: DarkHope on July 18, 2003 9:47 PMthank you heaps and bunches! now I don't have to use the email option or Navigator just to get an answer back from some of the servers I use regularly! They thank you, too, since I am now not nearly so annoying by having to re-post queries. Yay!!! Posted by: JD on October 27, 2003 11:28 PMI have used this haxie for 3 weeks and have finally deinstalled it again. It did its job, but the price was less responsiveness from Safari overall. Often twice a minute, Safari hung for up to 10 seconds. This happened during scrolling, entering text into textboxes and many other activities. Once I had removed it, everything was back to normal. My specs: Safari 1.1 (v100), OS X 10.3.1, 400 Mhz Powerbook G4. I hope that this post will help others that wonder why Safari is suddenly less responsive. Thank you. Posted by: Peter Bichler on December 19, 2003 6:08 PMIn fact, I see no reason why this haxie would make Safari less responsive at all. It only overrides one method that is called to determine a timeout value. So I am pretty sure your problems were related to something else, Peter.

After trying out countless things for 2 months, I've finally found out that SafariNoTimeout is NOT the culprit for the slowness of Safari. Rather, the problem was the "auto-fill" function, which, after having used Safari for nearly one year, made Safari become slower and slower. If you've got the same problem and your file ~/Library/Safari/Form Values is also bigger than 250KB, you might consider trashing it or turning the auto-fill function off and presto: Everything's back to normal speed again. Posted by: Peter Bichler on February 20, 2004 4:50 PMYou say here that SafariNoTimeout does not require APE. Yet when I just ran the installer it told me that APE was installed into my Frameworks folder. So what's the deal? Is APE activated? Is the installer just a stock haxie installer?
