The demo doesn't work? (Safari)

There's no point in making web stuff if you can't support major browsers..

EDIT: I take it back. mdkess is right.



I disagree. If it's an artistic project, I think it's pretty cool, and who cares if it works on all browsers? It's still worth seeing. Further, if it's just a UI flourish which doesn't otherwise affect the functionality of a site, then it's fine, too. Anyway, it looks cute to me. I'm thankful to whoever posted it and whoever made it.


That's pretty harsh. How does one support Safari if they don't have a Mac?


You can support Safari by downloading the Windows version of it without having the need for a mac?


The latest version is not available for Windows.


Maybe like 18 months ago.....


The same way one can support IE without windows ;) (up until recently)


Probably Webkit nightly


The demo doesn't work because https://rawgithub.com/maroslaw/rainyday.js/v0.1.1/rainyday.j... is 503ing, not because he doesn't support your browser :(


Note that this url works fine:

https://raw.github.com/maroslaw/rainyday.js/v0.1.1/rainyday....

Note the dot after the raw


Works fine for me, Safari 6.0.5 on OSX 10.8.4.

The URL that is required to load the script is 503ing. The issue is not with any of your browsers...?


I now realise that the submitter wasn't the developer so my comment doesn't stand.


(and I apologise for my grumpiness)
