Background images

Please help me with this, FF can do this easily with the right click menu but with Opera...

How do I view background images?

For example ABC TV show pages, http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/

Thanks

What should we see on the example page? Opera normally displays example images just like any other browser.

I know what the OP is talking about. If an image is specified as a background to a div (or a table cell, or the page body) -- say using a CSS, then in Opera there is no way to access it short of viewing the source and extracting a link to that image from it. OTOH, in FF you have such background images also available on the right-click menu.

Right, sorry I didn't make myself too clear at first as I can see the image but I can't do a page right-click "View Background image" as FF, seeing that without this option I cannot save the image unless I go through the source.

So, feature request more or less?

Afraid so. You should also post about this on the Desktop Wish List forum.

yep this seems like a serious shortcoming in opera especially for web developers. FF and IE have had this for ages. And it looks like Opera doesnt even care about this - the above post is three years old - still nothing :frown:
