When You have Status bar turned on, then those tooltips are not showing. Or you have turned off that in 'Tools>Preferences>Advanced>Browsing>Show tooltips'. I think that sucks when I have to turn off Status bar to see tooltips. I don't know why they do that to Opera. Yeah, I know that I can place status field to other bar, but it's not the same.

@IIXII
Is Opera supposed to ask to use UserJS on https sites each and every time? Or should it remember the answer?

@kyleabaker: It seems like Opera asks about using UserJS for each https host and also it will ask again if any of UserJS scripts was changed.

Any clues?

Entering /. in the address bar??

@FataL
So the https sites are supposed to always trigger a question of whether or not to use the userjs? or is that a bug? cause it gets annoying, hehe.

kyleabaker: no, not always - but once for each host and again if the userjs changed. Can you please describ in detail what exactly you are doing when it prompts you "always"?

Soleen, not been able to repro... Could you please try setting OPERA_NUM_XSHM to a really low value (starting with 1) and see when it starts crashing on startup?

@csant
I have installed the "orangoo-spell-check" userjs made by Sombria..and every time I open Opera (with a gmail tab always open on startup) it waits on loading the login page until I click yes/no to use userjs. I think this should be a saved choice..as I answer the same every time I visit the page. I've been told that I can modify the js so that it ignores https site, but that's not what I want to do as I might use it on some, so a simple solution would be to remember my answer instead of forgetting when Opera is closed, etc. Also, not everyone who uses userjs will be a guru in javascript and able to make it ignore https sites so for those people it would also make life easier if it remembered.

Thanks for responding!

@Devs
Also, just noticed that the "Charset Inheritance Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability" was fixed a few builds back in 9.2 beta. Congratz on patching another security hole! Now the Stay Secure widget looks good again, hehe.

What you describe is currently expected behaviour, and did not change. UserJS on HTTPS is off by default.

Hmm guys .. may I ask .. when will Opera work together flawlessly with those tiny nice Google tools ?

Calendar : reports incompatible browser (but works)
Notebook : (http://www.google.com/notebook) - no possibilty to add a note here ...

Good work so far.

SKolb: When Google fixes them :-(

Are there any plans on fixing issues with RSS feeds sorting that I'm writting about since Opera 8? The thing is that I'm subscribed to several feeds: #1, #2. Sometimes messages from feed #1 appear under feed #2, sometimes under feed #1 and feed #2. And it does not matter which feeds I'm subscribed, which Opera version I use and if it is clean and separate install after windows reinstall with full format.

@Aux: you mean in the view where you see all feed articles together?

That is by default shown in the order the feeds were retrieved. Remember that a 'feed' is simply a single document that contains a number of articles. Opera than stores these articles separately. By clicking the column header articles get sorted on date, which works fine as long as the feed supply proper date fields for each article. Otherwise Opera will have to use the 'received' timestamp for the sorting. I don't think there are real bugs here.

@Rijk: There definitely were real bugs.

I haven't seen it on my own install but on others that have only upgraded to final versions.

Messages related to an entirely other feed would constantly show up in the wrong feed. Not every message would go wrong but some would. I believe they would also appear in both their correct feed and in some others where they didn't belong at the same time.

Not sure if it remains such, but if nothing has been fixed in this area it's pretty much bound to isn't it?

Hi, sorry, but opera (linux-build 631 and previous) crashed after todays dist-upgrade at debian/sid. Probably the reason is due to some changes in the x-server packages.

Happy Easter

Hello!
What difference is between

and

"Hi, sorry, but opera (linux-build 631 and previous) crashed after todays dist-upgrade at debian/sid. Probably the reason is due to some changes in the x-server packages."

Yep, same here. The output when trying to run Opera is:

The .5 version of Opera is linked against/to libstdc++.so.5 and the .6 version is linked against/to libstdc++.so.6. The libstdc++.so libraries are part of gcc (the GNU C complier). When gcc upgraded from version 3.3.n to 3.4.n (and higher), they changed the ABI, and bumped the version to .6.

Opera created two images (.5 and .6) to get around this
gcc incompatibility issue. The Opera .6 version was compiled on a gcc 4.1 system and the .5 version was compiled on a gcc 3.1.0 system (I think)

I have a gcc 4.1.1 system, therefore libstdc++.so.6 is present and I can use the .6 version of Opera.

the upgraded of feisty of today gave me a similar (maybe same) error:

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libjvm.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libawt.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Hallo,

There is a bug regarding youtube videos. If a youtube video page is loaded in opera for too many hours, you can play the video using the youtube standard view page (small video) but you cannot play the video using the youtube fullscreen view page.

A minor usability fix is needed:
it is not possible to close pages/tabs using the window menu(near Tools menu) or the tab bar dropdown menu extensor or rightmouse-button+scroller list. It could be useful to assign the middle or right mouse button to assolve this function.
Another design option could be that when using toolbar exension option(which is enabled when there are 10+tabs) the dropdown menu will show the full list of tabs (like the window menu or windows pane) but clicking on an item in the list will will also change currently visible tabs to show a range of tabs containing the active/selected webpage (item)



I usually abuse opera loading very large multipage sessions (I cannot count them but there are nearly 100 pages) this way the tabs are resized to 2 pixel or less width producing a strange effect (It seems a skinning error), It would be useful in such cases to provide the user an alert dialog box to enable the tab menu extension option.

Opera has become my main internet user agent.

It offers a great degree of customizability apart from lacking firefox-like addons. It has got widgets I know but it would be wonderful to provide a mean to use standard Opera interface to add new functionality. Like a dropdown menu to translate pages in other languages by using user selectable translation services on internet.

don't know whether this matter or not, shared-6 package, slackware-11.0 :

$ opera

(process:29415): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:2215: initialization assertion failed, use IA__g_type_init() prior to this function

Adobe FlashPlayer: gtk_clipboard_get(GDK_SELECTION_PRIMARY); failed. Trying to call gtk_init(0,0);

I'm also getting this error after todays feisty update.

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libjvm.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libawt.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

dschurma: what system are you using? Try setting env variable OPERA_NUM_XSHM to zero.

Update: nevermind, did not know fiesty was ubuntu's name.

I am also unable to start Opera after todays Feisty upgrade..

Something wrong happend with background images! In some cases they not visible at all.
Is it known problem or I'm going to make screenshot, test, report?..
My bad, sorry... Had "Only cashed images" option on.

For Debian/Ubuntu users: downgrade libx11-6 to 1.0.3-6. This fixed my opera problems.

Jan

The only version of libx11-6 available in feisty is 2:1.1.1-1ubuntu3

but I also don't think this is a real solution, changing OS-libraries...

There is one problem. When i check the mail and there are some problems with the server, if i press stop button it doesn't work ((

I think that the version of the browser Opera has to be flexible an independent of the platform, be compatible at binary level with whatever Operating System based in IA32 (Ex. Windows, Linux, FreeBSD); and at source code level with anothers Operating Systems. That mean an avoid the compatibility problems, because is not necessary develop it by every Operating System, with this way the hours of work are smaller and the behavior and features of the most complete version can be improved for all user independently of their platform and last the error can be fixed better and more efficient and quickly and Opera will advance more faster than now for all.

• What option controls the fonts used to display data in the Manage bookmark tab? The keyboard sequence <alt b m>.
  
• For that matter what option controls the font used in the address bar?
  
• OPERA_NUM_XSHM is set to 0.
  
• The previous version 577(.1) displayed the above w/ a bold font.
  
• The current version 631(.1) does not use a bold font.

When the address name completition is off (but I think it is not necessary) and I write a word into the address bar, Opera shows an error if the page doesn't exist.

I think you should expand the google search to the one word form too.
Of course with the acceptance of the hosts file primarily (eg. localhost etc).

Hi, this is my first post here so bear with me please!

As -KJ- and pavlac have pointed out, in the last two builds (8767 and 8769) activating the status bar deactivates the Link: tool-tips. I find this type of tool-tips very useful so please tell me that it is just a bug and not a feature.

Keep up the good work guys!

@bmd: That's by design.

So how would I get the title of a link then? The status bar will only show the address, and tooltips will be disabled. I usually dislike waiting for a tooltip to show up, so I do have the status bar enabled.

That would be especially annoying for icons that link somewhere, as the title is usually the best way to figure out what the icon does (for me, anyways).

hello
flashplugin doesn't work correctly on
http://moosy.blogspot.com/
i've used UNIX build 631

wrtlprnft: The title tag is still shown, it's just the link URL that is no longer shown.

Junyor: I hope there is/will be an option to revert to the old behavior. It was really useful since the status bar can't show the whole URL if it is too long.

It's annoying that opera doesn't respect the plugin-path from the Ini file. All plugins are shown (loaded?) several times.

DoubleT: Yes, I see it too with the GNU/Linux version O9.20-631(.1)

Easy to duplicate. Preference -> Advanced -> Content -> Plug-in options... -> Change path ... -> Okay -> Okay -> Okay. Then enter <alt t a p>

@wrtlprnft and bmd: If the Status Bar is on, the address will show there. If the link has a title, it will still show in a tooltip. If you don't want this behavior, disable the Status Bar or move the Status Bar field into another toolbar (I think that works).

.. and also note that it is the 'statusBAR' that is the problem, not the 'statusFIELD'
