Shazzner posted:Is anyone have problems with embedded flash? Particularly Youtubes in posts glitch out when I scroll down. There are some problems with flash, the thing I've seen is that if you move a tab from one window to another on a second monitor, flash won't follow. It still renders in the first monitor.

NFX posted:I get it from time to time as well (also did with 10.50), and it seems to happen most often to larger images, so I guess it's some memory problem. Yeah, actually I've had something similar as well. Large images, several (as in >15) tabs open. Large images stop loading. Restarting Opera has helped, even if it's a pain.

Angryhead posted:Installed it and even deleted cookies, still can't login. Just goes back to the login page, without logging in. That could be related to the other redirect bugs, like no being able to copy a redirecting link's address after visiting it or SA's "jump to next unread message in thread" feature.

I don't remember if this has been discussed yet, but both Opera Mobile 10 and Opera Mini 5 have gone final (two weeks ago). Both are free. I have been using Opera Mini on my mobile phone, but Opera Mobile is even better and faster. Both use the same UI, so if you've used Opera Mini 5 betas, you should be familiar with it. http://m.opera.com/

Probably, if you ran an inflate algorithm on the data in that address you'd get sensible output. If it works with other browsers, looks like smashingmagazine.com does some browser sniffing that cuases it to return a compressed data stream but for some reason it's not marked as such in the headers.

Ape Agitator posted:However, I do wish they retained the optional image only "O" button because it seems remarkably inconsistent to have the button with the text when everything else in Opera conforms to the Customization option of "Images" or "Images and Text" and variations between. It's an alpha. I'm 100% sure they will fix that.

Does anyone know if you can change the speed the cursor in Opera Mobile moves? Because currently it jumps maybe 15 pixels per button press, which is enough to jump over many small links (for example links to "next page" that use a single character like so: » ) Sometimes I find myself circling several times around a link in an attempt to hit it.

Reisen posted: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.

bartkusa posted:I just got a new tablet PC with multitouch. Is there any way to configure Opera to treat touch inputs as "pan," and pen gestures as "select text"? I haven't had to muck with Opera inputs much before.... I think you probably have to configure those in the OS. So if there is a way to make touch inputs as scrolling, I imagine those would work with Opera as well. Or ir you can configure the driver to handle touch inputs as "ctrl + alt + mouse" when using Opera, that could work as well.

The current extension API doesn't look that exciting. It really does not expose anything that could not have been done with User JS. I guess installing extensions is a bit easier than installing use JS, but that's pretty much it.

ColdPie posted:As someone who rarely has more than 10-15 tabs open at a time, and that's only during complicated programming sessions, I've always wondered the use case that leads to 150 tabs open at once. What are you doing where that's a more efficient way to browse than just using bookmarks or Google? I use Netvibes as my RSS reader. I open Netvibes, then middle click a couple dozen of links, then read those and repeat. And also the soft bookmark/to do thing. Although, when I realize that I've had some tabs open for days and never reading them, I just close them.

I had Opera taking about 1.8 GB of memory (private bytes according to Process Explorer), which was pretty impressive, I think. Then Flash crashed and it dropped to around 1.2 GB. Anyway, I didn't know Opera sandboxes plugins these days. My Youtube tabs just showed a white exlamation mark in a light gray circle instead of the Youtube player. Yeah, and at that 1.8 GB point, Opera was pretty unusable. Pages didn't load completely, there were random freezes and such. But hey, Opera survived, and I could restart my session without a hitch. (Please make a 64-bit Opera, a forum on the internet)

I got a newfound interest in protecting my privacy after Firesheep was released. So I deleted all my cookies and set Opera to ask me about accepting new cookies. (I know the Firesheep attack is not against cookies themselves, but against cookies transimitted over unencrypted connections) Anyway, I could deal with clicking "refuse" a few times after clicking a random Google result, but holy poo poo is it annoying to open a link (not to mention several) in the background, only to have it pop up in your face asking about some random ad server cookie. The best of all is that the dialog also steals focus, and "accept" is the default choice, so as I'm writing this post, if a background tab contacts a new server and wants to know about its cookie, I'm probably going to accidentally accept it by pressing space. I've disabled "Send Referrer Information" for years. Very few sites break because of it, and the rest can be fixed with site preferences.

Mithaldu posted:Disabling referrer information does not increase your security or privacy in any meaningful way. You are only being a pain in the arse for webmasters that way. And I can't even begin to guess how many servers my browser hits per day, but I'd imagine it's a big number. And I see maybe a couple sites per month that break (usually images won't load) because of disabled referrer logging. I imagine I'm part of a really small minority with my referrer disabling, so I don't think most webmasters actually care about referrers. They probably could probably respond with a 403 to blank referrers, without affecting the browsing experience of >99.9% of their visitors. quote:Screening cookies does not increase your security or privacy on your own home network. Firesheep attacks only work if the attacker is on the same IP as you are, i.e. on the same wireless network. Anyway: advertisers doen't need to know I visited a fetish site in February, then looked for jobs in June. Or Blogspot doesn't need to know I visited sickfetish.blogspot.com in February, then howtogetacooljob.blogspot.com in June. And anyway, focus-stealing dialogs are lovely UI in any case.

RoadCrewWorker posted:Anybody who took a look at the new plugin API can say if that might be possible? No. Currently the API really doesn't expose any new functionality. You can make a button that sits on a toolbar, but otherwise the extension API only enables you to do things that user Javascript can do. So you can modify web pages and send requests to remote servers and use local storage, but you cannot, for example, create hooks that intercept new requests and rewrite headers or modify the user's preferences.
