Another 11.62 snapshot

February 9, 2012 · by Haavard

Here's another 11.62 snapshot. We will probably try to do weekly snapshots of Opera 11.6x every Thursday or so.

While testing, please pay particular attention to the following Core (Presto) fixes:

  • CORE-10115 (Hide window.event, attachEvent and detachEvent from visibility (like document.all))
  • CORE-24242 (Remove readystatechange events for SCRIPT element (live.com search fields on third-party sites))
If you notice any sites breaking when compared to Opera 11.61, let us know!

Known issues:
  • Opera crashes when saving files

    WARNING: This is a development snapshot: It contains the latest changes, but may also have severe known issues, including crashes, and data loss situations. In fact, it may not work at all.

      We patch stuff on 11.62, both core fixes and desktop fixes
      On 12 we upgrade core which is a bigger process and why you sometimes see builds with only desktop fixes.
      You will soon see more core fixes on 12 as well

      Question:

      does the fixes here in this build already fix in the latest 12?

      seeing both presto versions of 11.6x and 12

      11.6.x=2.10.229
      12.xx=2.10.238

      also, in 12 one of the sites that i visit is perfectly rendered in 12(2.10.238) while in 11.6x(2.10.229) breaks the site and not rendered properly.

      i dont want to report it since its already fixed in 12 but wont you mind upgrading the 11.62 final atleast to 2.10.238 presto version?

      all 11.6x versions

      this is the site

      http://www.pep.ph/index.html

      1) click any article in that site
      2)try an example link

      http://www.pep.ph/news/32941/Dolly-Anne-Carvajal-unfazed-by-talent-manager-Shirley-Kuan%27s-statement-about-Carmina-Villarroel-Claudine-Barretto-issue

      3) click "Show/hide" Comments (be sure in any 11.6x versions)
      4)doesnt load

      but in 12 it loads fine

      not just the link article i provided but ANY article on that site with the "Show/Hide Comments" in it doesnt load in any 11.6x versions.







      EDIT: i think this is the problem

      *Sending File objects in {window|worker}.postMessage

      already fixed in 12.xx(2.10.238) but not in the presto version of 11.6(2.10.229)

      It caused some performance regs so we removed it until that is fixed again

      Reminder :

      2) O/Settings/Preferences.../Advanced/(Tabs)/Additionnal tab options/ -> uncheck "show close button on each tab"

      --> The "minimize", "enlarge" and "close" buttons are not shown in the top right of the window.

      Thanks for the update smile

      The release of the new mail client coincided with changes to Presto that make page transitions ugly on a number of sites. The option "prefs..advanced..browsing..redraw after xx seconds" is being ignored resulting in ugly flashing and momentary incorrect fonts on a number of sites. I've mentioned this before in several blogposts and have made a bugreport but the problem remains. Check out the following site as example:

      www.ameeradance.com
      www.cwc-services.com

      In either case, just click on the various pages on the top-menu and see the page "flash" to white, the DOM jiggle about as Opera does layout, and the fonts momentarily incorrect.

      There seem to be a number of issues:
      - CSS is not fully applied until after the page drawing begins
      - Sometimes the document is drawn before any CSS is applied
      - The page is cleared before drawing, leading to nasty "flashing" on dark sites
      - Sites using performance techniques like minifying and Gzipping are often not rendered correctly the first time - DIVs are incorrectly placed and objects are not sized correctly. A subsequent refresh of the same page fixes the problem. This can be seen at demo.yootheme.com by simply looking at one of the themes and navigating around the links.
      - Redraw after xx seconds, the option designed to hide Presto's layout algorithm in-progress from the user, also designed to smooth page transitions and reduce flashing etc.. is just being ignored altogether on a number of sites. If this were working correctly, some of the above issues would melt away.

      All of this makes Opera an ugly experience for users. Of course Opera is my preferred browser, and I can work around these issues, but friends and colleagues are put off by these idiosyncrasies and head over to Chrome etc. instead. Will we ever have back the smooth browsing experience of the 11.5x Presto line (pre Mail update)?

      Another small bug re. Mail, clicking on an addressee in the To: or From: line of the mail body and hitting "Compose" does nothing.

      Seb smile
