Safari and FAFSA

I filled out FAFSA forms using Chimera with no troubles. Haven't tried Safari, but at least on OS X browser also works.

Same here: Chimera worked fine with the FASA form, so the statement that NO OS X browser works with the FASA is partially wrong. I say partially, because maybe the author of the hint tried to do something that I did not, which gave him a problem.

Besides, even the FASA's browser requirements lists Mozilla as compatible, so Mozilla-based browsers should not have an issue. Furthermore, being a government site, they need to use standards-compliant code to meet Section 508 accessibility requirements, so it leads me to believe that the author may have tried to do something funky when completing/submitting the FASA form, and that specifying IE 6.0 is not necessary.

Just a hunch. The tip is a good one for spoofing the many "Gotta use IE" sites.
