How Chrome, Vivaldi or other Chromium based browsers behave on that page?

I will never install Chrome or any other clone of it. The only exception I did was to try Opera 36.

As 36 is a old version it really may be missing more up-to-date security protocols.

Well, it's the latest on XP OS, can't do much about it, can I? Except maybe importing latest SSL certificates. As for "upgrading" my OS, it's a NO too. I don't need overbloated OSs that don't offer me any REAL improvement to my daily work. Only because they're newer or trendy that's not enough to be better. Oh yeah, I can't play 25 GB games... big deal...

We're just trying to help you track down what it is.

How? Telling me there's something wrong on "my setup"? Can you be more specific? Because I have installed Opera 36 for XP to see how it renders websites that don't work anymore in Opera 12.17. Immediately after a default installation of Opera 36, the website suggested didn't work. What a progress...

And all this while Firefox works perfect. Thing is I am not a fan of FF, but I might have to become one because Opera fails me.

It is a matter of SSL for sure (see post above) and by reading other topics I see that Opera team will not address new SSL cyphers.

Opera need a lot more work.

Do you use any anti virus, firewall, anitimalware or similar software? If so, have you checked with it disabled?

I use, obviously. Last version of ESET Smart Security. The same software that protected my PC flawlessly for the last 10 years. I tried with it disabled completely. No difference. In fact, why would it have something to do with not loading CSS and images?? It's Opera's fault. Firefox works.

My guess is Opera fails at SSL protocols. This is a screen capture of debugger console showing multiple errors.

IF it fails in Opera then it probably fails in Chrome and any other browsers that share that renderer. Does it work in Firefox? If it fails there also then its a problem with the site and not your browser.

As I already said, Firefox works perfect where Opera fails (see below).

Chrome & Opera need a lot more work. In fact I still consider as felony Google's takeover of Opera 12.17 project. Google butchered Opera and got rid of a major browser competitor. Why do they need TWO BROWSERS??

What part?

Most probably the fact that you are using an old version of Opera.

Funny... I've quit Opera 12.17 because some websites don't render correctly, just to find that Opera 36 fails miserably exactly the same...

This actually might be the issue. Unfortunately.

What part?

Using Opera 36? It is reported as being the last stable version...

Or using Windows XP SP3? Because I don't see anything wrong with it. Firefox works perfectly on every website.

"Might be?" Do you know of any admission of malfunction from Opera team? Or is it just a guess?

Sadly nobody says a word about their findings after visiting the website indicated in first post...

Hi
Some websites are not rendered correctly. Is there a guide to solve that?

Yep, drewfx nailed it. BIG thanks!
In your face Photobucket! In your face Google thieves!
Opera 12.17 proves again it has invaluable, flexible embedded configuration tools to adapt to any situation.
