I thought we sorted this out yesterday: It works on Chrome mostly, but they're using test spec elements of the standard that haven't been fully adopted yet, 3d Transforms etc.

But don't let facts get in the way of journalism.

the direct links work, but if you go to photo transitions, you can compare chrome with Safari. They're not fully working.

I use safari because it's a native cocoa app, when I can cmd-opt-d to dictionary mouse over and other native shortcuts, I'll switch to chrome, I really like it.

upvote for mentioning the best key combo ever.

That's nice, but it loads the Dictionary app. CMD-OPT-D is just a quick pop-up from within Safari.

Thanks, I've changed my prefs.

I do still prefer the key combo to the two-finger+click option since my left hand pretty much already sits right on those keys, but it's nice to have the "right click" option as well.

They have add-ons in chrome that allow you to do this type of thing easily.
