  Keep in mind that some sites will fail due to lack of proper browser.js (for now).

• sleepyhead28. February 2010, 22:07

  fast, faster, opera

• merkavam428. February 2010, 22:10

  Faster and faster and faster.

  But great build anyway! Thanks!

• svatansever28. February 2010, 22:14

  come on guys, i gotta go to bed, it's 00:13 here in Turkey but you are keeping me in front of my computer with yet another RC. many times thank you for your hard work and commitment.

• Dane28. February 2010, 22:15

  Wow, you're putting in some serious crunch time Shouldn't you guys be in bed by now?
  
  
  I just realized... Are you guys trying to push a release out before the big european MS Windows browser changeover tommorow?
  
  It seems to me that the current RCs still have quite a lot problems... I hope that doesn't drive people away :S

• Mark Gillespie28. February 2010, 22:15

  For those interested, the new "Identify As"
  
  OLD:
  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; U; en-GB; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061208 Firefox/2.0.0
  Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 6.1; en-GB)
  
  NEW:

  and...
  
  If you visit here:
  
  http://www.dailymotion.com/openvideodemo
  
  and Identify as Firefox, you can view the HTML5 demo. Clearly DailyMotion need to sort out their browser logic...

  OMG!!! You guys (developers) must be on drugs!!

• Cjcr28. February 2010, 22:18

  javascript input-box has no spellcheck

• Kamil Piwowarski28. February 2010, 22:19

  Super

• sleepyhead28. February 2010, 22:19

  old Burning Board Forums kinda work when Masked as Firefox, doesn't really work Masked as IE, doesn't work at all when Identified as Opera, Firefox, IE - since the first 10.50 pre-alpha

• Daniel James Hendrycks28. February 2010, 22:20

  

• Aditya Patel28. February 2010, 22:20

  Just to make sure... am I suppose to be able to update to RC2 from the built in update checker? I am so far running RC1.
  
  I tried... but it says I am running latest version although RC2 is out.

  This is not available through autoupdate.

  There are too many comments for us to be able to respond to most of them. All the off-topic comments don't exactly help either, and sadly drown out legitimate comments like yours.

  
  Fully understandable. Checking out 3292 now, thanks!

  this one is annoying the heck out of me, really.

• BS-Harou28. February 2010, 22:23

  please fix DSK-281715 before final. (btw in last +-3 builds there is bug with horizontal scrollbar - just follow the steps in bug report).

• Saribro28. February 2010, 22:24

  I can't seem to log in to GMail, I keep being dumped to the login page after entering my user/pass.

  I understand that the schedule is a little tight at the moment and there are certain priorities which aren't autoupdate. But could you explain the feature: Download all snapshots? Will it function in the future?

• sleepyhead28. February 2010, 22:24

  make opera Masked as FF on that page and you can at least post

• Haavard28. February 2010, 22:25

  Unfortunately, "Burning Board Forums kinda work" doesn't really help us much if it was intended to be feedback for the new build
  
  If you have any specific problems, I recommend that you describe them clearly and concisely. All the off-topic comments have a tendency to drown out legitimate comments, so it's difficult to know what people are referring to even if they may have posted it before.

  How can be be sure it's an Opera problem, not a problem with the websites code?

• Haavard28. February 2010, 22:26

  If there is time. Autoupdate is a bigger process because we have to verify that it works before we publish the build, the servers need to be prepared, and so on.

• Dennis Tardio28. February 2010, 22:27

  Bookmarks still slow to be loaded.
  Systray icon not disapear on closing Opera. A mouse over is needed.
  UI color can be way better.
  
  

• c197328. February 2010, 22:27

  In my opinion, one really important thing to fix for final 10.50 is to bring back icons in context menus when running graphics adapter in 16 bit mode under Windows XP. Important because - among others - quick preferences (F12) are not usable as check marks are invisible.
  
  http://files.myopera.com/c1973/files/missing_icons_16bit.jpg
  
  
  Mod edit: No need for inline images. They only create noise.
  
  

• ohxten28. February 2010, 22:28

  Just so you know, all of the issues reported here (all of which were also reported in the wizard) still occur in this release.

  Pleeeeeaseeee fix this!

  Confirmed, although minor, my guess is that it'll be fixed in the next (minor) update after 10.50.

  sorry unconfirmed... gmail works fine for me.

• Francesco De Domenico28. February 2010, 22:30

  DSK-284241 still not solved.
  If you disable the status bar in the aspect menu, close and reopen opera the status bar is reactivated

• Saribro28. February 2010, 22:31

  Never mind my GMail post, seems a solid cookie-cleansing + restart was required.

  if you use opera as it is you always get an error after typing and clicking "post" and the post is gone
  => http://i46.tinypic.com/vrwqr6.jpg
  
  masked as IE -> you can quote someone, but not add anything yourself
  
  masked as FF -> you can post normally, but the top bar where you can just click to add Bold, URL and other code is missing and inserting smileys by clicking on them doesn't work either
  => http://i49.tinypic.com/2yl9wd0.jpg
  
  
  hope that helps more

  Yahoo mail (the new version, not classic) does not load.
  
  Classic version loads fine.

• PT28. February 2010, 22:33

  @Haavard
  Try the TinyMCE on the following page (and on other pages using this type of message board):
  http://demo.woltlab.com/index.php?form=ThreadAdd&boardID=2
  Line spacing doesn't work well when pressing enter, and after entering a few lines and hitting preview ("Vorschau") the text is display as following:
  
  line 1
  line 2
  line 3[MSIE_newline_end ]
  
  Reported it as bug 280271 a few weeks ago; newest Opera (RC2), Win7x64
  
  Cheers,
  Pablo

• Rachid28. February 2010, 22:34

  Whoops, looks like there's a serious glitch with the ALT+TAB window:
  
  http://rachid.nl/operaclipping.png
  
  Hope you'll fix this before 10.5 goes final. Will file a bug report too if this isn't known yet.
  
  (I think btw TinyMCE should be invoked in this edit comment window but it is not. Who can confirm?)

• Александр Карпинский28. February 2010, 22:34

  Opera can't load local files as default browser if not latin characters in address.

  And Haavard, what you think about all this bugs:

• lwiczek28. February 2010, 22:34

  Restoring tabs after browser restart still doesn't work (not a major thing since not that many users enable this option, but still a bit of pain for those who do ... )

  Why? RC2 will either be the final release, or is at least very close to it. It could probably be regarded as final in terms of stability.

• Tr3x28. February 2010, 22:37

  One more issue. I've already reported but on the FB someone suggested it was site issue but all other browsers including opera version till 9.01 show the page with the vscrollbar. Since opera 9.23 this site is looking like that: - > http://i49.tinypic.com/209ll6s.png = no scrollbar
  and it should look like this: -> http://i49.tinypic.com/eger91.png = scrollbar is here.

• Aditya Patel28. February 2010, 22:37

  Haavard Buddy...
  
  http://www.hindilinks4u.net/ crashes the browser immediately. This is the one you asked me to submit report with email address.

  Cannot confirm. Win7 32bit. Have you tried with a clean profile?

  Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this. I'll see if someone else is able to. It will be very difficult to fix this without being able to reproduce it here.
  
  Does it crash with a clean profile?
