Getting the odd error with Opera not being able to find oGet. I thought I had removed it properly but I sometimes click something or download something and I get an error message that oGet couldn't be found. Any idea what files I need to edit? Could re-install but that would be a pain.

Not a clue, why don't you want oGet? I think its bloody handy thing to have, and you don't "have" to actually use it. Most of the time i use the inbuilt download manager, unless its a huge ass file...

What didn't work? There isn't much to not work ? It just passes a url over to your installed manager, unless you used "silent" which as i said, gets tricky with scripted downloads etc... theyre more hassle than theyre worth...

I seem to remember that I set FDM to not bother downloading anything smaller than 4Mb or something. Yet it still kept capturing them when I want the smaller downloads to be handled by Opera. I want an external download manager to handle big files that I can resume if something goes wrong.

Problem is oget just passes things to FDM. So you either set oGet to silently filter everything to FDM at which point FDM sees < 4mb and say "no", or you tell oGet to shut up and use the normal download manager, and when you're after something bigger just rightclick on the link and "Download with oGet" or if there are lots "Download all via ftp" and filter out what you need etc... Thats how i use it and it works grand, and i'm downloading allsorts off html newsgroups so lots of big things and little things too... I did try it in silent mode but as i said in theory its good in pratice its a nightmare...

Ah. Thanks for posting. Sorry for the late reply, didn't see this.

Tbh I think its more trouble than its worth for me. Might just back up my Opera files and reinstall.

You know how you can press '.' (the full stop button) in Opera to get a little search window in the bottom left of the screen? Is it possible to get the search to carry on searching through the document? I.e. using the normal search I can search for a term and if found it gets highlighted, I can then move on to the next instance. Is this possible with the fullstop search?
