Sorry for the delayed response TheLarrkin. I will send another request to our Dev team to investigate further.

Anything on this?

If the Fx script was copied, that's a shame. Autolinks still do not work. But they should! Nothing was changed in the latest release to disable them, but they are disabled. Also, the HTML button is working weird.

Please respond.

sj1dog - Was the 'working' Fx scripting copied to Opera-identified browsers? Or, do you think you could copy myself the script, as I could test it to get it to work in Opera? There is no reason the auto links shouldn't work in Opera, unless there's a problem in the scripting (auto links worked in 9.x right up to but not including 9.5x), which is possible if it's Fx's script, copied.

Let me know, please.

Thanks.

Yep that part seems to work for Identify as Opera.

Yep I am as well seeing that the links are disabled still both in Mask as FF and IE.

Well, I'm typing in the textbox as we speak with "Identify as Opera" selected in my prefs. I think there's still something funky going on with Chat, but then again, I don't know what it's supposed to look like in the first place.

ALL OPERA USERS: Try to go to:

Tools -> Quick Preferences -> Edit Site Preferences...
Go to "Network Tab".
Go to "Browser Identification".

and change it to 'Identify as Opera', and let us know if it works for all of you, too.

:) Thanks!

EDIT: Well, I came back to check the linking buttons, and it seems they are disabled, much as they are in Fx Mode. I'm wondering if the site management simply switched them out, so it'll work either way. ...Hmmmm...

9.51 is now out. Hope that it fixes some issues.

Yep chat just looks ugly in it but that is ok.

Ok I was just curious about it as well so it not me its Opera masking FF. Still learning well I did learn what a widget was the other night. LOL and how to get new skins which is very nice as well. Thanks for the info on it as well.,

I never chat. Not anymore. *shrug*

And I have to link via the 'HTML' edit button instead of the 'Insert/Edit Link' button, just like Firefox users, I believe. It's because we're masking as Firefox. If they fix the error for Firefox, it'd be OK for us, masked like this. Then again, if they just fix the site for Opera, we can be back to the good ole' days, using the easy button method (Pre-9.5 it worked just fine, then the whole site broke for Opera 9.5. I don't believe it's ever worked for FX.).

TheLarrikin are you having issues with URL linking at all? Just curios on this one I can not get it to work at all when copying and pasting a URL in to a message. And Chat looks funky.

Cool thanks for the help my first time using it so I thought I broke something again.

Edit got it to work thank you TheLarrikin for the assistance.

Opera 9.5 works great. Eggxpert's Opera-specific coding doesn't quite... To fix it,

Tools -> Quick Preferences -> Edit Site Preferences...
Go to "Network Tab".
Go to "Browser Identification"
Change to "Mask as Firefox"
Everything will be okay. :)

Every other site that I go to that uses this same type of Rich Text Box seems to work, so it's gotta be something Eggxpert specific.

I had that problem, too, for a bit.

Well I tried using Opera 9.5 final about 2 days a go and well I can not type in the message box so I tried 9.25 as well same issue there. I find Opera to be faster then IE7 and FF.

EDIT:

Also, nobody's fixed the search bug that I pointed out around a year ago, if I remember correctly, ~~(too lazy to look it up... :S )~~ mentioned here.

It's simply that, when pressing 'Enter' to search (at the top of the page), it does nothing. I even proffered a universal solution for fixing it, using the Opera's ability to change the source and reload the page live, to find a ~~bit of~~ non-validating ~~Javascript (I believe)~~ action. ~~It's in the forums somewhere if anyone cares to look for it.~~ Not a major issue, like I said then, but.... while you're at it... you know. *shrug*
