Opera Browser

Just a random plug for MY browser of choice, Opera. Have you guys heard of it? I’ve been using it for a long time now, and have to say the only reason why i use anything else is for testing web designs. :slight_smile: www.opera.com
its not only the fastest browser in the wooorld, (more noticeable if you are on dialup) but it is unbloated, and it has cool features like it can block popups, and block cookies, and chain proxies, and all sortsa stuff.

cool! nice to see sOMEone else knows what it is… lol. another funny thing, it supports CSS and CSS2 better then any other browser, i wish the others would catch up so the large body of inet users could see things as reliably as you do with opera. (no i do not work for them…lol)

hehe

ummm… WUT?

hehe. ok b dawg, Opera is a browser, just like IE or Netscape, only a lot of people don’t know about it. But it is better then any of them IMHO because it has many features that the others don’t and it is also much faster and smaller. and also, it supports cascading style sheets better then any other browser, which a lot of people use now, but even more people will be using soon, because with XHTML you must use css, and XHTML is the next step after HTML, which is pretty much… like the next step in getting better website uniformity cross browser. (basically it makes your stuff look better, and you get more similar results in all different browsers)

THNKS FOR THE DETAILED EXPLANATION GOLGI!!!1

:slight_smile:

yes, i use it and LOVE IT!!

haha :slight_smile:

IE…um, what? =) :stuck_out_tongue:

I heard that it sucked. I will try it agian but right now i like IE and Netscape and Mozzila (said to be the best of the best). But i heard opera also contained adweare…

If you like opera then you should love AvantBrowser. It is opera, just renamed and modified. I has all the features of IE but with:

-Option Images (you can turn off the images on pages for faster viewing)

-Pop-up blockers

-Tabbed windows (an awesome feature if you look at a lot of websites at once)

-Customizeable toolbars

  • and everything that golgi mentioned. I use it, Rev uses it and last I heard he loves it too. This is by far my favorite browser.

I have this, along with DeadAim, and everything is tabbed… I could have 15 webpages opened, and 25 IM and all I have is 2 windows open. I also makes your computer run faster I have found. I use less resources while doing all my web crap… :slight_smile:

**i like the tabs too! **

haha, actually I started using Opera just because of the tabs :slight_smile:
Now I like Opera, because of shorcuts and some other features that I like. The only thing that I miss from IE is CTRL+ENTER.

anybody tried the safari browser for mac…

what does cntrl+enter do?

mariofan i will try it when i get my mac this summer! (with luck powerbook 17")
