Does the html posting toolbar show up in AskeMe using Safari?

I suppose this must come up from time to time, but I couldnt' find it searching... I was just viewing AskMe through Safari and when I went to add a comment, the little toolbar for bolding/italcizing/linkifying text wasn't there. I see this is the same on the other pages as well. What up with that?

I believe matt's answer a while back is still the reason.

Yeah, they've never worked in Safari.

The Javascript function for modifying the contents of text fields that browser-based rich text editors use is not implemented in Safari's Javascript runtime in shipping versions.
