"Known problems" doesn't have URL (isn't "urlable"?) other than
http://www.mird.org/home/mwm/try_python/. It's on that page - click on
"Known Problems" to open up the section. That particular problem is
listed under "Tested Browsers" (which heading I'm going to change), as
I believe it's a place where the browser fails to follow the standards
- or maybe the standards fail to specify the expected behavior with
sufficient explicitness, as Safari shares this problem with OmmiWeb
and Shiira.

If you can provide the JavaScript fragment to reliably get Safari to
put the cursor after all the text in a textarea, I'll fix this
now.

     Thanx,
