AresXP Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 They hardly work together. I don't know about Opera 8.53 but I know for sure it doesn't work on Opera 9. It logs on but you can hardly click anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 opera's got various bugs, and so does IE, and directrix hasn't bothered making workarounds for either of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AresXP Posted April 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Obviously Opera 9 has quirks, it's still a TP.At least it passes the Acid2 test... whilst Firefox and IE fail it miserably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Meh, that doesn't mean much when everything else is still buggy.0.101 appears to be working on Opera 9 anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1c3d0g Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 The Acid test is crap. Doesn't mean squat if a browser passes it or not, since it uses non-standard, non-W3C compliant tags to render the image. At least, so I heard. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoicJester Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 the test is actually valid html 4.1, although they haven't declared their encoding like they should. the css is invalid, but that's done purposely, to see if browsers handle bad coding properly. seems like you could make that into whatever you want, though. i'm not sure there's a w3c standard for handling bad coding. i think that's a browser by browser decision, so that would mean the acid2 people are trying to set their own standards.

1c3d0g Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 You forgot to test their CSS...11 errors and 29 warnings... :/Edit: yeah, you edited it before I replied. Anyway, I don't like the way they're going...standards are there for a reason, and they're not meant to be "overruled" by any browser. Their tests just encourage lazy behaviour by not coding properly. Either you code correctly, or you don't code at all. It's as simple as that. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalShrubber Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Either you code correctly, or you don't code at all. It's as simple as that.... yeah windows 95 was build on that paradigm, developers needed to make code without errors, or else we got blue screens. And it wasn't bad while you ran errorless software… Now as we know, many things changed, and with Vista m$ is trying to ignore software errors, as much as possible, so the OS remains stable if some program crashes…Moral of the story: Browsers, in my belief, should ignore errors and display other content correctly; moreover browsers should even be able to detect error and report it.

1c3d0g Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Exactly. Just ignore the errors (and even better, report the error so it can be fixed), but never, in a million years, should the software try to "interpret" the error as to what possible action it should be. That's just wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Directrix Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 It does, but some things I really can't do anything about at the moment, eg. Opera doesn't allow JS to prevent events from firing, which would mean that right-clicking shows the Opera's context menu over the WebUI's. Someone has filed a bug report, but as far as I know nothing has been done to address this issue. I don't even want to start with IE, because in my opinion its a large pile of crap (this applies more to IE6 than IE7).The process I go through while I'm dev-ing is as follows: get everything to work in Firefox then fix all (atleast most) issues in other browsers. I will try to get everything working in the major browsers, ie. FX (gecko-based), Opera, Safari, Konqueror (KHTML-based), and IE, but some things I'm not going to take the responsibility to fix (which are few, but are mostly nasty).

Vasto Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 An ugly fix is to make sure you have Right clicks enabled for Javascript (It's in your preferences somewhere). Then when you right click in WebUI, press alt. Opera will select File, but you can see the right click menu that WebUI has. Not exactly an ideal fix, but close enough until the more important bugs are ironed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha-Toxic Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 even esier:hold the right button for a second and while holding press the left button or even press them at thesame time, this way the java script menu shows and Opera's menu doesn't.

Ultima Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 After I enabled and disabled mouse gestures, it doesn't work for me anymore. Stupid Opera. Anyhow, that only works with mouse gestures disabled, otherwise it goes back a page instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICleolion Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Well we got multiple workarounds, im sure everyone will find something they are happy with.What we really need though is someone to write up an opera plugin that will disable the default context menu for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
