Opera is henceforth a Webkit browser
Date: 02/13/13
Keywords: browser, web
I started this community 10 years ago and have been an Opera user for a lot longer. I actually paid money for the browser in version 6 (back when it was ad-supported).
Today, Opera has essentially become a Chromium shell.
It's not a bad decision, Webkit is the best rendering engine and has been for a while now and site compatibility will get a lot better, it does feel like the end of an era though.
Fare thee well, Presto.

PEGI 12! Has anyone else encountered this strange one?
Date: 09/14/11
Keywords: no keywords
Opera 11.5x on both my Macs (Lion) has started producing a very strange issue. Seemingly at random, certain actions (particularly with the mouse, but sometimes with the keyboard or even idling) cause Opera to start playing the audio from a trailer for El Shaddai. I can't find the trailer in question, but Googling the quotes suggests that it was shown at Comic-Con. At first I thought it was being caused by a background tab obnoxiously deciding to play an ad with sound, but sometimes switching tabs (particularly with the mouse) makes it shut up. Restarting Opera makes it stop for a while, although it 's coming back more and more rapidly. Does anyone have any ideas what could possibly be causing this? Has anyone else even encountered it? Thanks!

Thoughts on 11.01
Date: 01/31/11
Keywords: java
Well, I installed 11.01 over 10.63, and it generally seems to have gone smoothly. As far as I can tell, my layout and config weren't affected at all, and the skin I use (Opera 9 Standard Skin for 10.50) still works - at least for my purposes.
YouTube still seems to be working under the illusion that I do not have JavaScript. Has anyone else noticed this?
I cannot seem to get rid of the address bar "badge" even after unchecking the HideURLParameter box in opera:config , but it's tolerable. I would, however, like to change the way the address in the address bar is styled. I don't need to have the domain subtly highlighted, and I'd rather have the rest of the address be in black rather than gray.
I've also noticed that, when I use Speed Dial, the Speed Dial URL appears in the address dropdown. It's tolerable, given that I can remove it, but I'd like to prevent it if that's possible.
A major peeve is that I can no longer exit a tab if the cookie dialog is open. I liked being able to do that in the 10.6x releases because it let me get out of pages that were effectively unusable because they kept tossing cookies at me. It appears that that ability has been taken away. Boo! Hiss!

Opera 11
Date: 12/16/10
Keywords: no keywords
Opera 11 has just been released.
New features:
- Extensions!
- Tab stacking
- Visual mouse gestures
- Address field fiddling
- Changes to the functionality of the mail panel
Note: Opera have decided to remove the protocol (http://) from the address field for some reason - if you're like me you'll find this change oddly disconcerting, but fortunately it can be put back in opera:config.

Widget. Перемещение окна с помощью мыши
Date: 08/03/10
Keywords: no keywords
Создаю виджет. Использую блок с overflow:auto (scroll).
Виджеты перемещаются за хватание их в любом месте внутри окна.
Проблема в том, что даже за саму полосу прокрутки хватаешься и он не даёт прокрутить содержимое блока.
Кто-нибудь сталкивался? В чём проблема и как решить?

Problems Loading Hotmail
Date: 04/15/10
Keywords: browser
I just tried logging onto my Hotmail account on Opera, only to get the following message from Windows Live:-
"The Windows Live Network is unavailable from this site for one of the following reasons:
"This site may be experiencing a problem
"The site may not be a member of the Windows Live Network
"You can:
"You can sign in or sign up at other sites on the Windows Live Network, or try again later at this site."
It can't be my system, because I'm running Firefox concurrently on the same computer, and that browser loads Hotmail easily.
So is there a problem with Opera, that Hotmail is no longer recognising it?

Fixed width Tab
Date: 04/06/10
Keywords: google
Innovations. I often open many-many tabs into the Opera. The tabs are compressed and becomes clear vital text information in the header of the tab, such as the number of unread messages in google mail. I propose to give the opportunity to adjust a combo keys and mouse width of the window and then fix it.
Here are a window to full height (clickable for the full size screenshot):
Crop to 1:1
p.s. My english is Google Translate :) Sorry
