New Google docs not working properly in latest Opera 10.52 final

New featured Google docs with ruller etc. is not working properly in latest Opera 10.52 final or 10.53Rc. When I type and then I press button delete, it makes a dots, or when I press a left arrow button, it makes a symbol of percentage. So, nowadays is a new version of Google docs useless in latest version of Opera:(
If u dont trust me, see the proofing video bellow:)

I must confirm that.

I can confirm that this remains true in Opera 10.53. The arrow keys and delete both create symbols and if you happen to press V with One-key shortcuts enabled, the voice mode will try and activate. This is specific to the new version of Google Docs as reverting to the old version through the menu eliminates these issues. smile

This is still true in Opera 10.60. I created a thread in the Google Docs Help forum for it as well.

No. Google do the tricks. I applied "Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; en) Presto/2.6.30 Version/10.70" via user-agent switcher in Firefox. Firefox also shows the characters for arrows.

Opera, what have you done to Google that they always want your users stop using their services?

The problems experienced in Opera can be reproduced in Firefox. Google is "blocking" Opera quite completely, which has already made masking ineffective. I guess even if we have some ways to make them work, they will be useless soon.

Report Google to the EU competition people. Etherpad doesn't work either though it's open source now. Wave doesn't work for different reasons although there's a patch.
I still don't know what online colloboration docs we're supposed to use. Don't make me install FF please.

Is there a decent alternative to Google Docs? I'm more attached to Opera than I am GD, so would choose to move my stuff from there if it came to the crunch.

zoho.com is not too bad.

I personally prefer Google's services though. They're faster and easier to use, a lot faster, and nobody I know but me has a Zoho account (so collaborating means I have to use Google). I also plan on getting an Android phone, so I really don't want to give up on my Google account. My solution is to use Chrome as my Google Docs browser (most other Google services work OK in Opera). I would of course prefer if I could use Opera for everything, but that doesn't seem like it will happen anytime soon.
