OSX Safari Frame Load Interrupted

If you always want to get the ga event then the hitCallback is likely the only way to go until whatever is wrong with Safari is fixed. I use a similar pattern to send a GA event from a page in an app which is just a redirect after a whole load of database stuff has been executed in rails. There is no noticeable lag from adding the javascript redirect into the callback. However I am not sure how to initiate the download from javascript off the top of my head.

ga('send','event','Download','MexmlSample','MexmlSample-1.0', {
   hitCallback: function(){
   initiateDownload();
   })

I am not aware of any need to use the setTimeout() for pattern in this instance.
