I seem to have no problems yet with 10.60 final release. Haven't found another browser with built in email other than seamonkey.

There is a youtube exploit going around now that allows arbitrary Javascript to be executed from code in any comment (video or channel). Now this is bad enough alone, but word of mouth is that Opera and IE allow exploiters to delete the system32 folder. Stay away from Youtube (or at least with the safety mode don't open comments).

In hindsight a few "CONFIRMED: nuked my system32 folder" comments in various fast moving forum threads are probably no serious reason to worry, but i'd rather be safe than sorry. Disregard it and carry on. Consider it not stated at all. Sorry y'all.

Remember that with the newly implemented WebM support, Opera can now run HTML5 videos on YouTube with WebM.

awesome bug i found -- tell opera to search for text in the page... try searching for something that's bold. it won't find it. edit: specifically bold stuff is not found on wiki pages in my experience so far, but it seems the search function is broken for these forums altogether.

http://my.opera.com/chooseopera/blog/2010/07/08/opera-mini-is-now-on-3000-phones-and-counting Mini 5.1 is out, if anyone's interested. Some platforms don't have their native versions up yet though (WM is mine and it isn't, at least).

The new version installed today and the word "Menu" was back next to the menu image (which is on the tab bar, so I can't set it to images only without taking text off of the tabs). So I tried to move the menu to another bar, which worked fine except it did not remove itself from the initial bar. And the "Remove from toolbar" option is grayed out for new and old buttons. So now I have three menu buttons. Help?

Sounds like a bug, you should report it. https://bugs.opera.com/wizard/ As first aid, open opera:about, go to the "Opera directory", open the toolbar sub-directory and edit the ini file there. Search for "MenuButton0" and remove them from where you don't want them.

Ever since updating to 10.60 on my linux box (and having since moved to a 10.70 snapshot) I can't play video that runs in the flash players (old or new version) on youtube. Anything that was new enough to have an html5 version works fine, and the flash player itself loads up and responds to input. It's not just limited to channel pages as the previous poster talking about youtube problems was observing, so it's pretty annoying. Anybody else run into this?

Not that this had so much to do with Opera since I cannot directly integrate it with Opera, but... Whoever recommended JDownloader, wow. That is the best program I have seen in a long time. It just works. The interface is quirky but cross platform Java Apps always are. But man, it just makes dealing with downloads something to not even have to think about. And since it is just doing its one thing it is stable. I hated having 20 downloads Queue in Opera. I was afraid to visit a site that might cause it to crash (which happens a lot when the downloader has a lot of thing queued.). When it crashed it would forget where it was alot of the time forget that there were even downloads.

I've been having this problem since at least 10.53, maybe as early as 10.51. It only happens when I'm catching up on my reading here at SA. I go to my User CP, read whatever posts I've missed in a thread, go back and go to the next thread. Sooner or later, clicking that button with the number of unread posts in a thread does nothing - I click but stay at the User CP. When I refresh, Opera crashes. Anyone else experienced this? I've had no UserJSes until tonight when I put in the updated Autosizer, but this has been going on for weeks.

I'm actually a little surprised we haven't seen a build since last weekend when there are so many outstanding bugs in 10.60 that should have been fixed before release... I can crash my browser almost every time with: O Menu -> Mail -> Compose

Besides the occasional rendering issues (letters overlapping, sections of the page appearing fixed instead of scrolling correctly) i seem to get weird horizontal black lines on images as they're loaded after the last update. They vanish on a redraw (as in scrolling it off and on the screen again or changing the zoom factor) but are rather ugly and irritating until then. Anybody else had this issue and knows a fix?

Seriously the only bugs I've noticed in the current version are: 1) The PDF plugin doesn't work at all like half the time 2) The edit box on the new-reply/post form on here isn't as wide as it should be Weird drawing/rendering bugs sounds like stuff I had a while back that was fixed with a clean reinstall.

This has been the most annoying Opera release in a long time for me between this issue and the context menu changes.

Everytime i click on a page or thread in the forums, opera will go to that page but them go straight to a blank page, like its being forwarded. I have to click the previous page button i have on my mouse for it to load the page. Its like it loads the page then skips to a blank page. This is annoying as hell. I dont think it has time to load all the images on the pages here and i cant reload cause it does it again. Has anyone heard of this? No other web pages do this, just the forums.

I really want to use something other than Firefox, and I actually did use Opera a long time ago. Firefox just doesn't run as good as I'd like, but the thing is, it does something I can't seem to replicate in any other browser: Disabling video advertisements that prelude a video you want to watch. For instance, the ones on dailyshow.com. Anyone know how to do this in Opera?

Opera's inbuilt ad blocking is limited to a blacklist (with wildcards) of urls not to load. I think stuff like that requires a more complicated logic that it can't do. You could probably do it with a userJS if someone's made one, or by running a local copy of Privoxy or something like it and loading pages through that (it's a local proxy). That said I could be wrong and it could just work if you get the url of their ad server. It all depends on what their flash player does in the event where you don't load the ad movie, and whether their ad movies are in someplace you can block.

kapalama posted:You can do that with Firefox? Yes. It's part of Adblock Plus's EasyList Mithaldu posted:This. Doesn't seem to be working for dailyshow.com, I'm still getting all the ads. I made sure to open a command prompt and do nbtstat -R to make sure it read from the updated hosts file. And I rebooted. Nothin'. No change with Internet Explorer, either. Edit: Okay, apparently the hosts file can't affect my browsers. I added the data to the url filter and it's blocking the video ads now, thanks! Edit2: I figured out what was wrong with the hosts thing. You use double space to separate 127.0.0.1 with the host being blocked, so a simple Ctrl+H in notepad fixed that. Then you have to make sure the first line is 127.0.0.1 localhost So I can use pretty much any browser now and get the same adblocking, pretty nice.

Wow, I still can't believe after all this time, this is still an issue. I close opera - only for it to still be running in the background. This annoys me immensely. Of course, back then there wasn't anyone I could turn to for help, so maybe you guys know?

It's a disk cache thing. If you reduce the sizes of those you'll see the time decrease. I've just been happy that they recently did something to reduce the time for which it does that. It used to take something like 30 seconds - 1 minute for me and now I haven't seen it take more than 10sec in a while.
