I find that red grid-like/fishnet looking background image used in Opera Mini to be so alluring. Can someone please post the original image file?

How do I do that?

I definitely have the relevant application on my computer, by the way.

I'm interested in creating a simple online bitcoin store and I'd like it to look very similar to our Opera message board, which could be described as a simple mobile-compatible website. I have no experience with web design. Could someone point me to the right educational resources? What should I be learning? HTML5? Is that all? I hear about other things like PHP and MySQL... I'm sure the hard part will be learning the basics. Once I know those, I'm sure one of the bitcoin advocacy sites will provide simple instructions on how to integrate bitcoin coding into the site.

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?

can this be done?

Thank you!

Well, I'll give it another shot. sgunhouse, do you mind editing the 'Presto' out of the title of this thread, so that it gets more views: https://forums.opera.com/topic/6940/very-serious-issue-with-opera/9

It turns out I made an error and I was not talking about Presto.

Thank you, very much, stng! However, I just tried to download it and I was presented with this and I have no idea what to do.

shandra, it relates to Windows, not NTFS. NTFS has a total path length capacity of 32,767 characters. Windows put an arbitrary cap on that.

The version of Opera that is the subject of this thread is 26.0.1656.60 and it says "Opera is up to date." I thought "Opera Presto" was a nickname for this version, but I guess I was wrong. And subsequent to making this thread, it happened to me again. Hours later when I saw the folder in which the Webpage, Complete file was saved, I saw that only the images/stylesheets folder saved, and not the webpage. The old Opera threw up a series of nondescript warnings when this would happen. The second or third time this happened, I thought to check the destination folder and it was then that I saw that only a fraction of the content was saving (the images/stylesheets folder, sometimes completely empty).

In my original post I stated that Chrome has a very nondescript warning about this my not indicating a complete download, however when I just re-tested this, Chome did in fact indicate a complete download, and the one anomaly was that the Show in Folder option simply didn't do anything if cliked. Chrome and Opera 26.0.1656.60 share the same behavior, because Opera, as well, indicates a completed download, but when the "show in folder" is clicked -- which is a simple grayish button (stylish!) -- the download listing simply disappears, that's all that happens. One can test all their downloads by always clicking the gray button afterwards to see if it actually downloaded.

This relates to Windows' 255-character address limit. If you don't know what I'm talking about, click here. When you save a web page, if the saved file's address would exceed that 255 character limit, the web page doesn't save and you aren't alerted that it doesn't save. This is a potential hazard to the individual, as he may end up believing that he has archived important information, when in fact he hasn't, leaving him to be devastated at a later date if he finds that the information wasn't saved and that the web page is no longer up.

Even Chrome and the original Opera don't give actual warnings about this, but secondary behavior serves as a warning. With Chrome it's hard to notice, but if a page is saved and the issue that I described occurs, Chrome will not show that the download is complete, however Chrome' download indicator sits at the bottom of the browser, and the details of the download may go unnoticed by the user. The original Opera, by contrast, throws up a series of error messages seemingly for each file that is a part of the HTML, Complete download. Obviously all of these browsers need a single, definitive error message for this Windows-based incongruency.

As somebody who believes in saving valuable web-based information, and not simply bookmarking it, I'm appalled by this inadequacy.

How do we convert it from this 'exhibit' into a functioning web page?

The subject of this post is the 'print' version of email exchanges in Yahoo! Mail: http://i.imgur.com/LC48mrv.png

It presents the user with an HTML version of a particular email exchange (all received and sent messages with a particular individual), and the page is in the form of a pop-up. Now, this is the crazy part. Right-clicking and clicking 'Source' does absolutely nothing and File -> Save As saves absolutely nothing...

I mainly use 12.17 for the Notes. Is there a computer application that works similar to Notes?

I cannot be more specific than the title.

It's not as hands-on as Operas content blocking feature. With AdBlock, you have to obtain the URLs of every image you want to block and add it to a list. With the original Opera, you just go into content blocking mode, and click whatever you want to block and that's it.

The way the old one worked is you'd right-click on the page somewhere and the whole page would become whitewashed and you'd be in image blocking mode and then hold down the shift key ad then any image you clicked (you could still see the images, but everything was faded -- whitewashed, as I put it) would be permanently removed from the web page until you unblocked it. If you didn't hold down the shift key, but rather just clicked on an image, every single image for the parent URL that a particular image was representing would be blocked.

Would it be possible to make an extension to emulate this?

Seems like lynda.com has this ridiculous glitch where the horribly annoying Windows Navigation Start.wav sound is constantly being generated in the background. I deleted Windows Navigation Start.wav from my computer using the following method (link), but apparently the the webpage itself is using the Windows Navigation Start sound.

Also, how are sounds disabled in non-Chromium Opera?
