    Opera 7.51 - Two Thumbs Up!

    Been using Opera's browser over the weekend and I highly recommend trying it out if you'd like a solid, feature packed, speedier and safer alternative to IE.

    I keep finding more and more features on this thing. Its simply amazing how well thought out this software is and so far not a single glitch with it.

              Im so used to IE that browsing with anything else would be uncomfortable...

              Opera looks nice though

                      Faster than IE and Netscape with the banner ads (free version) but how to tell the masses to use this browser?

                          I've been saying good things about Opera for a long time now... it kicks some serious ass, and is definitely better than IE

                                      does Opera have any kind of form filling add-on? I would really need that feature

                                              Nice, I will check it out. Fortunately there is many extensions that make firefox a lot more productive as well.

                                                  Yes.

                                                  The features are listed here and there are even more beyond what's on this list.

                                                          Yes, it does.

                                                          By the way, I find that the people who are reluctant to use Opera often seem to dismiss it because of the dominant tool areas that leaves little room for the actual websites. What they don't realize is that you can edit/change/remove all of Operas areas easily, you can even make it give more space to websites than IE.

But I've noticed that I need to tighten up some of my pages some more. They looked/worked fine for IE and netscape but there's a few minor things with Opera. Some of my damn hahahahahahahahahaha isn't working either. *sigh*.. I wish they'd all just agree on some standards and then follow them.

But I've noticed that I need to tighten up some of my pages some more. They looked/worked fine for IE and netscape but there's a few minor things with Opera. Some of my damn hahahahahahahahahaha isn't working either. *sigh*.. I wish they'd all just agree on some standards and then follow them.

Lots of shit other browsers can even read. General rule of thumb, if it looks bad in any browser, start recoding your page.

                                                                                                  The best alternative to IE is K-meleon.

                                                                                                  It will not handle multiple heavy graphics pages as well as IE, but renders as good as any Gecko based browser.

                                                                                                                      I have built some j avascript intensive scripts, it worked well with IE and Mozilla derivatives, but I couldn't get it to work with Opera. It doesn't seem to follow w3 standards very well.
                                                                                                                      Yeah I'm starting to notice that the more I use it. But then again coding for netscape and IE has always been a pain in the ass as well.

                                                                                                                              I keep finding more and more features on this thing. Its simply amazing how well thought out this software is and so far not a single glitch with it.

                                                                                                                              Now I use Firefox.

What they don't realize is that you can edit/change/remove all of Operas areas easily, you can even make it give more space to websites than IE.
                                                                                                                                  ok - so tell me how to get rid of the crap to the right of the URL bar. I want to eitehr get rid of the google search box and the other buttons to the right of the addy bar.

                                                                                                                                  I am one of thise who like the buttons to be as small as possible and have my addy bar as long as possible (I like to see the FUL URL of the page, image I am on).

                                                                                                                                  One of the main things I do not like on opera is that it underlines shit that is not supposed to be underlined - like it does not care if the page says not to underline links. That shit bugs me very much...

                                                                                                                                      Now I use Firefox.

He uses dialup because he travels a lot and can get dial-up access anywhere. I installed FireFox into his computer and he and I both were blown away with how fast he is now able to surf - it's perfect for those who are still using dial-up.
