Facebook slow typing problems

,

Today's Facebook update caused some issues for Opera, some of their changed CSS made Opera work a lot harder while Facebook is updating itself. The main impact of this was that typing became very slow. Ouch.

Removing this CSS makes it work:

 .uiButtonGroupOverlay > :first-child .uiButton{border-top-left-radius:3px;border-bottom-left-radius:3px} 
 .uiButtonGroupOverlay > :last-child .uiButton{border-top-right-radius:3px;border-bottom-right-radius:3px}


It's not the selectors, so it seems we have some extra-slow-redraw-everything-in-sight path in our border-radius implementation. While we optimise this, we'll push out a stopgap update that prevents Facebook from applying border-radius styles. You can now start updating your statuses again smile

Removed patches


CORE-4083 chase.com field refocus from onkeypress-problem (site changed)

PATCH-392 Fix bestbuy menus (site changed)

PATCH-448 / OTW-6887 klm.com: Fix broken resizing of iframes (site somewhat less broken, though there is some browser sniffing left and experience isn't as good as it should be. Patch no longer has any effect, so dropped pending rewrite if OTW doesn't succeed.)

Added patches


PATCH-572 / CORE-7401 smn.gov.ar: reduce search input width to avoid wrapping

PATCH-573 / CORE-43961 Facebook's border-radius triggers hyperactive reflow bug, performance suffers

The slow typing problem was real... Now it's gone... Thank you

I have another problem on facebook, on the top right dropdown menu... it's not showing well... The problem probably is on its css (display etc.)...

Waiting for the next update... wink

It's more than today's update… Certain triggers have been causing the slow typing issue since at least last week. Mostly when inserting a link in a status update; Opera became completely unresponsive. I hope this fixes that, too!

Thanks! I was wondering what was going on... should've known it was caused by yet ANOTHER Facebook coding change. They suck.

Same here. "Check for Updates" didn't changed anything. Also setting browser js to 1 and trying again doesn't do anything. I had to manually download the new browser.js and overwrite the old one.

Does anybody have the same problem with drop menu? http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/3350/vstiek2k.jpg More details here http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=1279282

Yes, known issue, Opera lets width win over nowrap.

Looks fixed to me.

Ola P. Kleivenolak Thursday, February 2, 2012 1:45:49 PM

Hmm, indeed, just as I made a patch for it to be included in next browser.js p

There are some other issues with FB now. The share popup window no longer closes after hitting share. :-(

On Google plus when you paste a url in to share, with the mouse, the add button stays disabled until you use the keyboard.

And sharing to Google Plus from third party sites is now totally broken.
sad
