In non-Safari browsers, the contents of HTML comments are available by document.getElementById(id).innerHTML. They aren't in Safari. I'll attach a simple HTML file that demonstrates the problem. When you open the attached file in Safari, you'll get a JavaScript alert reading "from commentdiv: World" and nothing else. If you open the same file in Firefox, you'll get an alert reading "from commentdiv: World" then the comment.

Perhaps it's a duplicate of Bug 5312?

I mistakenly picked the wrong bug of which this is a duplicate. 4273 is actually the number of the testcase attached to the right one, which is 5312. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 5312 ***
