No probs. Just trying to beat LeperousDust.

I was a ted fed up with Kestrel so I went back to 9.23 last night. Damned thing keeps crashing on me. Might go back to Kestrel now there is a new build out.

lol yeah - you did well to get it in first

i've had no problems (other than the wand not doing its job) so far

on a different note i've just come accross a new version of better gmail on digg and noticed that Opera can often run the same scripts that Greasemonkey can run for FF users...

http://www.webware.com/8301-1_109-97...d&subj=Webware

any idea how to add these scripts to opera?

Try something like this. http://userstyles.org/styles/1807

Click on the Load as User Script button and I think you want to copy and paste the text into a text file with say Notepad. Then save it as Gmail.js. Go to Gmail and then press F12 and choose "Edit Site preferences". Go to Scripting tab and in the User script box choose the Gmail.js and that should be it. Press F5 to refresh Gmail and hopefull it'll work. I hope.

how do you edit links in the personal bar? its the one thing that still makes me miss Ff - i've got too many links in some folders and also links that now go to the wrong places so it needs editing

i've googled and still can't find any answers!?!

MarcLister · 15-10-2007, 16:25

Where are you adding the links from? I've just had a look and the only way to add links seemed to be from the bookmarks?

Joe 90 · 16-10-2007, 13:45

okay - i've tried to illustrate that here (full size screen cap)

so as you can see its just my personal bar... you can add links as shown but i have no idea how to edit them.

MarcLister · 16-10-2007, 13:50

Tried right-clicking on them? Do you add them yourself or add them from your bookmarks?

Joe 90 · 16-10-2007, 13:54

right click does exactly the same as left click in any of the personal bar links :/

originally i think i added them from the bookmarks but now i've been adding them via the option you see in the above image.

this new release is gettin really annoying - this personal bar bug where it crashes all the damn time is bad!

also does Opera offer a markup explorer?

i've come across an odd problem with phpBB so i'm trying to get an idea of what CSS is being applied to an element when i'm browsing using opera.
any ideas how to do this?
