bugzilla on safari

if you're using bugzilla with safari, you might run into the problem where clicking a link downloads a copy of a page to the desktop instead of just opening it in the browser. this article explains the problem and how to fix it. i found that it was a bit off, so if their solution doesn't fit (its from Jan 15th), try this:
  1. open buglist.cgi
  2. search for my $serverpush
  3. add the line && $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'} !~ /Safari/ so it looks like:
    my $serverpush =
    exists $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'}
    && $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'} !~ /Safari/
    && $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'} =~ /Mozilla.[3-9]/
    ...
this solution should make bugzilla work with safari without breaking it for other browsers
