Opera Mini - Server Upgrade to 4.12.866

Server Upgrade to 4.12.866

By Gerald Senarclens de Grancy. Thursday, 3. September 2009, 08:48:09

The global Mini cluster was upgraded by the server team yesterday afternoon. This release's highlights include:

improved site compatibility
better support of image maps
login and JavaScript dialogs now have enhanced UTF-8 support
partial support for designMode/ contentEditable was implemented
<blink> and <marquee> are now always shown
better handling of pages with very weak contrast
and many bug fixes

All Opera Mini users automatically benefit from the upgrade (no manual change is needed, though it is possible to check the server version using the "debug:" URL).

Have a lot of fun!

Server Upgrade to 4.11.458Opera Mini 5 beta is now available

I wonder how the Opera Mini 5's coming along.

I ran into an interesting usage scenario today. I'd clicked through various articles to get to this page that I found rather interesting. I wanted to save the page for later reading, but I also wanted to maintain it's history sequence, so I could go back and read the articles that linked to it.

It would be neat if OM5 provided some way of doing that.

Here's an idea for the next version of Opera Mini, it should include a GeoLocation API to get either the phones GPS co-ordinates or the local cell id

nates45 # 10. September 2009, 16:42

thanks for the upgrade...thats really on improvement...keep it guys

Masbian # 10. September 2009, 20:32

Has anyone actually ever looked into this bug? It's a very long-standing issue, and I'm not really sure why it still remains when regular expressions constitute such an important piece of Javascript, and non-ASCII strings are very commonly found all over the web...

An example case where this breaks a web application completely is µTorrent MiniUI ( http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=47167 ). Various users have found µTorrent MiniUI to fail because of the broken regular expressions engine. And that sucks because oftentimes, Opera Mini is the only (otherwise) usable browser on whatever device it is that they use.

Opera cheat

Nicky50 # 12. September 2009, 01:50

What exactly do u mean? @ogilo

guy4info # 12. September 2009, 19:55

Damn! The upgrade is worth it...

Stan81 # 12. September 2009, 20:38

Operamini in nigeria is currently offline for those of us using mtn.... I need a solution

Furie # 12. September 2009, 21:01

If it's only offline for one network then it's the network doing it, not Mini. Keep a pay and go SIM from another network and top it up as needed.

I posted a bug report a while ago. A BLOG search won't show any more than the first page (10) results. It used to be a problem on the blog community roll page but was fixed - can they fix it in blogs? I think it has to do with the old restriction of 10 results google placed on wap browsers. It's a shame as I added a search blog by colour matrix in my welcome post that is stifled by it.

piroxicam # 13. September 2009, 14:11

In Hi5 we can not view pictures. All we get is the description and a blank square in place where the picture should be. Please fix it.

Furie # 13. September 2009, 15:37

They show up for me.

Tluangtea # 13. September 2009, 19:13

Operamini is the best!

Tluangtea # 13. September 2009, 19:15

It would be really nice if we could use omegle.com . Can it be fixed?

rewar # 13. September 2009, 19:20

Yeah it is d best

Stan81 # 14. September 2009, 01:17

Furie everything seem to work for you. I cant open sites that are ur to 300kb with my mini. It says i dont have settings when i try

Hilariousbabe # 14. September 2009, 05:53

Opera u're too good

Furie # 14. September 2009, 11:03

I tried that Omegle and that didn't work.

After seeing what the site does I'm kinda glad about that.

.

Some networks set a 300KB limit on data usage, per click if you catch my meaning. Give yours a call and find out if they do that. You may be able to convince them to change it, if there's been enough complaints anyway.

Stan81 # 14. September 2009, 11:47

Ok thanks:)

53north # 14. September 2009, 16:40

They ought to be glad opera mini is around to compress sites and make browsing popular. I found opera mini 3.1 to be better for big image sites, as it pages things up to downloadable chunks.
Still no luck with using a marquee on my blog today..

Sollaradiation # 14. September 2009, 23:35

I'm wondering how opera mini 4.2 cant open the wap.txtmate.com while the late 3.xxx can. Any solution opeRa team? Can we have the tab browsing and copy text option from an opened site back please? Thanks.

Furie # 15. September 2009, 00:51

You never had those options to begin with so I doubt you'll get them "back".

Tluangtea # 15. September 2009, 13:40

@Sollaradiation: that would be great if tab browsing was possible...and the copy text option would sure be very helpful.

Furie # 15. September 2009, 13:44

Try this out.

For those of you using opera mini in nigeria(mtn),don't worry it just a matter of time b'cos mtn has just finished upgrading their network

Fredmos # 19. September 2009, 08:30
