Odds and Ends: Yahoo! briefcase and Safari

Yahoo! briefcase and Safari MacFixIt reader Brent Davis reports a problem using Yahoo's breifcase feature with Safari:

"I have been trying to upload files to the free Yahoo Briefcase using Safari (1.0.1 v85.6) on my iMac (running OS 10.2.8) but have found that Safari isn't compatible with it. (However, I was successful using Internet Explorer and Mozilla.) The problem is that Safari doesn't display the page correctly. Where it should ask to "Browse" it asks to "Choose File." Not a big deal until you find the file you want and then attempt to upload it. Apparently, Safari doesn't insert the file path correctly and thus returns the message : 'Please specify a valid file name to upload!'"
