Jonathan, if a website works perfectly with IE, FF, Safari, Netscape... yet
Opera has a limitation that they have admitted and are in the beta phase of
fixing, let me get this straight, you are saying it is Superhighstreet that
is 'wrong', not Opera? ...Who have admitted their bug.
I'm pleased at least to see that you've changed your previous opinion where
you stated Opera has no such limitation (search back in this thread), along
with some insulting words thrown in to illustrate your 'point'. 'Short
bloke' syndrome Mr Little? :P
Have just had a look at your website. Hahahha! Very innovative. At least
it loads fast I guess ;) Might want to get your own house up to an
impressive level before pointing fingers at other people's.
