Comments and Tips

This configuration does only apply to Mac OS X browsers that use the WebKit engine; on most systems this means that this only applies to Safari. Firefox is an example of a non-Webkit browser. Concerning Firefox on Mac OS X please see the appropiate step-by-step instructions for Firefox on UNIX systems; they equally apply for Firefox on Mac OS X.
