The saga continues... 9.01

By Johan Borg. Friday, 14. July 2006, 14:37:01

9.01, Merlin, WEEKLY

It's been a short month since we released 9.0 and we think it's soon time to let the rest of our users take part in the polishing we've worked on since then.

This isn't a release candidate, but it's not too far away either, so make sure your voice is heard

, especially if you find a regression since 9.0.

Happy bug hunting!

Fixes to contenteditable

Weekendly release

By olli. Sunday, 18. June 2006, 16:04:42

This weekendly is windows only.

We have fixed some installer related issues.

Fixed problem where Opera would run in English after installing in Traditional Spanish.
Fixed startup freeze after installing Opera in Czech. Note: be sure to remove the default bookmark file(s) from previous installations of Opera 9 in Czech -- or remove the old installations altogether, else the new installation will automatically import it, and Opera will freeze on startup again.

Also fixed blank inline pdf files.

yet another daily!

By Claudio Santambrogio. Friday, 16. June 2006, 15:16:12

Opera, opera girl, damer, desktop ...

Well, it's Friday again (for real, this time), so you shouldn't be too surprised to see a new build

And the changelog is getting shorter:

CNN video does not crash.
Favicons in widgets work again (on Windows and Mac only, for now).
Fixed display on opera: pages.

And this time we have an extra bonus for you: we would like some more feedback on various UNIX platforms, and therefore all UNIX packages are available! (Yeahy!) And in this context it might be worth reminding that installation on SunOS is fixed.

Happy testing, and enjoy!
