URL Autofill And File Saving Questions :)

  • Hi,

    Just switched over to Opera from Firefox. I love almost everything about the browser, but I really miss two of the features of Firefox and was wondering if there was a way to get it on Opera.

    The first is how their URL autofill works... Now, I know Opera does autofill, but I like getting autofill suggestions based on the page title too. For example, on Firefox if I had visited a page with the title "how to boil an egg" if I type "how to boil an egg" in the address bar it would show that site in the list of URLs. On Opera it only does this for sites I've bookmarked or added to Speed Dial but I'd really love to have this feature for sites in my history too. Sometimes I want to view a page I've been on before but didn't want to bookmark.

    Example of what I mean: http://i.imgur.com/MA5Jttt.jpg (none of that stuff is bookmarked)

    The second thing is how files are saved. I'm a web designer and I often have to run images or code through optimizers then overwrite the original file. But on Opera when I optimize a file and go to save instead of keeping the original file name it adds (1) on the end and I have to delete it every time! Very annoying when I have to save and overwrite 20+ images!
