Hi, Ive got a slow PC & see that Opera is using up a lot of CPU. - even when im not doing anything - EG - its been 5 mins since i last changed a website page.

I read on this forum about an Opera Task Manager ?? However i cant find it in my settings.

WIN 10. OPERA: Version:68.0.3618.173

How can i find the opera task manager to see whats going on ?

Hi, I see that there is a manual way to delete the cache from "now" to 24 hours, 7 days etc..

I am wondering about these two options :-

1. delete the ache over a certain timeframe (ie keep the cache under 7 days)

if i delete cache under 7 days, i could have some in my cache that was held over 8 days ago.

deleting cache over a certain timeframe seems more logical.

Is this in development ? in a later version of Opera that i have ?

and

2. is there a way to delete the cache automatically on exit ?

Ie,

I close the browser, and any cache that matches my time-frame is automatically cleared/deleted.

I dont like having to remember to do things manually.

@gordonisnz Ive found it - I am sending data to the php script, but my php isnt receiving it

Hi, Is there a dummies guide on how ti use developer tools ? (Ive not used it before).

Basically, i'm designing a new PHP script, and this one has no $_POST values and i'm not sure where to look in the developer tools to see that my HTML form is actually posting values to the form/PHP script.

How do i see if any values are actually being sent ?

@leocg Yes - Ive tried toady, and its happened twice..

Once where there is nothing in the address bar, control-V & that popup comes. Another time i started to type, and then control-V & the pop-up

@leocg

Hello. Im trying to type in the address bar (where it says "Christchurch Chez ..." - my old search.

i type Christchurch - and then control-V, and my next search " Claudes Cafe " appears in a pop-up screen. i wanted claudes café in the URL. (ive got it set to search Google).

See image

I also checked settings and cannot find "babe".

(PS - cannot find a way to contact the moderator direct.)

Hello - Im often typing on the URL bar, and this goes to google & searches for me (this is what i want),

However - recently, (I do not recall when), a new "feature" has appeared where im typing & then a pop-up appears called Search Tabs.

Half of what i am typing appears in the URL bar, and the rest appears in the search tabs option. I have to close the pop-up & resume typing.

How do i turn this off ? oi dont want to waste time on this (im searching a dozen times an hour )

Hi.

What does the Opera Browser Assistant do ?

I've got a slowish PC anyway - but Opera was going Very Slow - i mean so slow i can get a cup of drink & come back before a page loaded - very slow..

in AVG tuneup, i made Opera browser assistant in sleep mode (inactive) and now opera goes really fast

Hello. my Opera Browser went Really Slow - i cleared the cache & rebooted.

WIN10: Opera: latest.

I am wondering if there is a setting that i can use to clear the cache automatically when i exit..

Or - if i have a RAM-drive - Use that & have it automatically used each time i boot up. (I'll have to set up a ram-drive - if i can)
