Re: Framework versions

Also, it seem to get more interesting that WebKit version is "124", but if
you look at the Safari's About window it reports v125.1.


So where did that come from, who's telling the truth ???. ASP just reports
1.2.

The Safari application and the WebKit framework have separate version numbers. In the past, the version numbers were the same because they were always updated and released at the same time. That's no longer the case.


The version number in the Safari about box is for the application, not the WebKit framework. Users, much like fish and water, aren't aware of frameworks so we don't display the version number there. Developers of web content and native code have other means of getting the WebKit version number.

Because I run so many different versions of Safari and its frameworks, I keep this handy bookmark around:

javascript:alert(navigator.userAgent)
