Re: Apache Flex download page/mirrors on Safari

Safari 5.1 on OS X 10.6 is still not getting the right downloads for these urls. It just downloads a 13KB file instead of showing the list of mirrors.

From: http://incubator.apache.org/flex/download.html

Dasa,

Can you please log a JIRA ticket for this (with a link to this
discussion)?  I think the solution is known, but has not been fixed on the
site yet.

Thanks,
Om
