      How do you edit the source code of a web page with Opera 26.0? Right clicking and selecting "View page source" shows you the source, but you can't change it like you could in 12.17.

        The source viewer is just a viewer, not an editor. Any text editor will work for most types of pages though. Just save the page somewhere and open it up with Notepad or something.

            Wow, sounds pretty featureless. Kind of like this forum, i.e. no feature for quoting a post. Is the Opera Software company trying to water down all their products as much as possible?

              Use Developer Tools (Ctrl Shift I) and select Elements
              You can edit the displayed HTML

                  Sounds like a classic PEBCAK error. Reading the documentation of the forum should help you correct it. I'll link it here but its also at the bottom of every page.
