Getting an odd error in Safari 4:

Here’s the auth token that’s output to my javascript:

4HB8yAW4gU2xEavWOc+kiMoj4XIyCBUK/t704aOQ+co=

Here’s what’s listed in the parameters:

“authenticity\_token”=\>“4HB8yAW4gU2xEavWOc kiMoj4XIyCBUK/t704aOQ co=”

notice: the +'s are being replaced by spaces.

This a specific safari issue? I haven’t even been able to get FF to  
give me +'s in my auth token.

Matt, you might want to also log this bug, if you haven’t already done  
so,  
by  
clicking the bug button in the upper right of the Safari 4 window.

Yep, I already have. If this is a safari only bug, hopefully we can  
get this fixed in the nightly soon…
