Opera 9.20

[Sonic]

Released recently with a spiffy new "Speed Dial" (http://portal.opera.com/startup/?tip=speeddial) feature that opens your favorite sites within an instant.

I really recommend people at least try it out, if they haven't before. In my opinion, Opera kicks the shit out of IE or Foxfire or what have you.

[Thiorn]

Opera performs Fatalities on all other browsers simply by emanating bodily odours.

I am pleased by this new update.

[Indigo]

I've been using it for 6-7 months now, and haven't switched back, despite me first using Opera as a "temporary browser" until I could get Firefox fixed. I've also recently discovered http://dev.opera.com/tools/, which adds a lot of nifty tools for web development, making my love for Opera grow even more.

[Reku]

My dependence on Firefox extensions and sheer laziness prevent me from using Opera.

[Zaben]

Even though Opera has pretty much everything Firefox has, and likely even more.

[Reku]

I've looked into this many times: Opera has nothing on Filterset.G

Remove ads or images - it's up to you. Right-click (CTRL-click on the Mac) on the Web page and choose "Block content".

I'd say that is pretty damn close.

[Reku]

The problem with opera’s inferior blocking feature is that anyone who conceals images, which many ads are, can easily deflect them being blocked by covering them with a blank gif. The only way to block content from the same site you are visiting is sifting manually through the source or using another real browser to find out what the image name is and then block it. Images that lie beneath other blanks are totally non-existent to right-clicks and the blocked content feature in Opera. If I dont find a solution to this Opera will be uninstalled like it always is.

But not close enough...

Let's face it.. There is NO way anyone can move Reku to move his lazy self to use opera :) Hey Reku, y don't you design something for opera to do what filter set g. does :) Just a thought ( and no.. don't mention any crap about me diving into and editing openoffice code )

Anyways.. I might try it out soon :)

I just d/led the new Opera version a few day's ago. Speed dial is sweet! :D

Hey skittlehawk, y don't you go edit that OpenOffice source code, already :) Just a thought

I used to use Opera, but it had a problem loading active page scripts out of standard templates. It was weird. All the php would show up, as long as it was programed directly into the template, but say a user edited a custom title with a marquee, that wouldn't appear.

As a matter of fact, marquee never showed up.

So yeah, I don't like Opera because of that. Extremely happy with Firefox.
