You will like to know that today's build actually has options built in to deal with child window tabs. You can actually control them.

I installed Opera on a couple of computers at work. I think it was ver. 5.02. It managed to disable a homebrewed (not by me) Winbasic (I know this is not the right name, but I can't think of what it is) program that accessed an IBM AS-400 machine database and translated it into something user-friendly. It has not been possible to salvage this program, and the IT guys want to wipe my disk and start over! Not likely. I now have to live without this program that Opera screwed. And Opera claims that they do not access anything but the directory that they are installed in. Well, that's BS. If that were the case, you would not need to install it, you could just run the .exe file and it would work. It obviously puts something in the registry. And who knows what, elsewhere. Or what .dll's it screws with. On my home machine, when I try to start Eudora, Opera starts. It's too bad; Opera does offer some nice perks, but it's really defective. Maybe I'll try it in Linux again, but in Windows, it's not a good deal. At 12:08 11/13/2001 -0800, Ben Rosenberg wrote:

WOW. I installed Opera/Linux last night, just to do some on-the-fly comparisons between it and Konqueror, and I was not unduly impressed,

Does that mean you were quite impressed, or quite a lot impressed ? Mike

Opera was impressive, but no more impressive than the Free Konqueror browser.

It has a great linked list, but now that Mozilla has an option for tabs when you want to use them, Opera's less impressive - though if I was using old hardware like I was up to a few months ago I would be more impressed. Opera uses little resources. It's also a fast download. Once they get the Linux Netscape plug-in support ironed out that will be a great feature too. One of the big reasons not to use alternate-browsers under Linux seems to be their lack of support of plug-ins.
