Both browsers are sending the file variable over. For some reason in Rails params[:file][:name].original_filename = '' when Firefox submit the form and params[:file][:name] = '' when Safari submits it. That tells me Safari isn't sending over the form as multipart when a file isn't selected. Lame Safari. I specified it in the form tag. Do what I say already!
