In the meantime, probably best to just leave out “must-revalidate”.

Ive tried the latest v4 betas and its no better. hmm ive got a problem with a php script i wrote that serves up mp3 files that are located outside of the visible webserver hosted folders on the server.

My test case is failing to show it in Safari 3.x because there's a proxy intercepting conditional requests to mrclay.org that I was unaware of.

BTW I found this while trying to figure what its new "Speculative Loading" feature actually does. At least the new bug (w/ test case) I created has been referred to Radar (Apple).

This is not because there is no desire to fix the problem, but purely because if the bug isn't in WebKit then WebKit's bug database is entirely the wrong place to track the issue.

I have used many other browsers and feel that google crome is the fastest of them all. By the way they have added new features such as "cover flow" which I like very much.

This has given me the impression that Safari's underlying network framework is an utter piece of shit that Apple is uninterested in fixing.
