I haven't used ctrl+F in several months after "accidently" finding out how this works.

Try pressing the period button ". (>)" next time when not in a text box on a webpage, and the find function should pop right down, and it works like a charm. Also, once it retracts back up and out of view, whatever term or search you left in the find box, well, it can be easily searched for again by pressing crtl+G.

Ah, a quick Find, eh? That's nice! I wasn't aware of that.

New question, I have searched Google and cannot come up with an answer...

How do I make it so that if I middle click on a bookmark it will open the bookmark up in a new tab?

I don't know what you mean by 'middle-click', other than a mouse function of which I am unafforded.

I do think I get the general gist that if you drop-down the bookmark listing and click whichever one, it only opens up in the current window/tab.

Oh. my. gosh. Just by sheer ingenuinty / innate guessing, I figured it out. Press 'shift+enter' when hovered above your desired bookmark choice, and it should open up in a brand new tab.

Illustrated example to follow (in case it is nebulous).

When the drop-down menu for your bookmarks is shown and your mouse pointer or highlighted selection for a webpage is set, instead of just clicking it, and letting it open on the very page you are working on, I just realized no less than two minutes ago, on my first try, that on PC-based Opera browsers, the keyboard command of "shift+enter" allows for this desried new address to be opened in an entirely new tab (whatever the equivalent of this function for Mac-based comp., I don't know, but am willing to guessing it will work, too).


(I'm guessing I probably i already kind of knew this, based on some prior mistakes I made that seemingly, always produced the undesired, but more often than not, the expected command of opening a new web tab when all you wanted to do is go to the new address directly.)

Thanks! You helped me figure it out (mostly). I found this with Google after searching for that "shift+enter" thing.

So if I hold shift when I left click on a bookmark it will open in a new tab. There are also mouse gestures that do it too but I disabled those. Maybe I should take the time to learn them.

Here's another alternative: http://superuser.com/questions/27244/op ... in-new-tab

Okay, I am finding one annoyance so far. Opera seems to want to cache websites a lot. I can see the need for speed but it causes me to take the extra step to refresh a website.

http://www.rlslog.net

That website is useful for new scene releases. Opera caches it so if I go back to it days later the cached page is still there instead of the new page. Is there any way to prevent Opera from caching websites like that?

I've edited this before.

Tools - Preferences - Advanced - History

When on the page, it should show the amount of memory you would allow opera to store, history of url addresses,
as well as when the browser would check to see if cached websites have been updated.

I believe the setting should be set to 'Always' (for documents) by default, but I haven't a clue if that is what you have set as; currently, I have the images set to 'Check every 5 hours', just because I don't see it as either better or worse than any other settings for images.

Personalize this to your preference.

Ah, I set both (Documents and Images) to Always. Now when I load the page it shows current and not cached.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. It was frustrating me.

NFL.com videos now work, whereas previously, I was only afforded the option to view them on FF.
I might never switch back now (might not even cheat).


I never visit break.com, but on the two times in the past year a link has directed me there, it doesn't work.
I think this site (and gmx.com, which is weird, as it used to be fine) are the only sites` I can think of that do not comply.

Opera 11 is out, and I've already found 2 great extensions for it...I may have a new browser...But, then again, maybe not...But I do like it alot...
