I don't see any new stuff. Maybe it's all back end stuff.

Ohh heres the list

What's New Safari Update 2-12-03 improves compatibility with popular web sites, displays web pages and Flash content more quickly, adds XML support, increases standards conformance and improves stability. The update also works with self-signed security certificates.

I need to do more tests, but it seems faster so far...On the pages I have loaded (which were probably cached from the version it replaced) the pages loaded in half the time it used to take, and the loading process went smoother. I just cleared out my cache and reloaded Macnn.com, and Safari ripped right through it. Definitely a difference, I would say. If my counting was correct, it loaded it in two seconds.

Also, according to Macnn readers, some of them are still having problems with online banking while using Safari. I don't have any desire to test that- so I will leave it to em
