• hcastill26. May 2006, 16:18:56

  WOW! I'm very impressed, apparently all the freezes/unresponsivness I was getting were related to the cookies bug. They are gone!!! Thank you!

• tomurbanowicz26. May 2006, 16:19:22

  There is no file

• ne08126. May 2006, 16:20:26

  Im getting 404's so i guess they arent all uploaded yet....

• Fyrd26. May 2006, 16:20:58

  Yay!
  
  I'm sure this is a stupid question, but as a Opera/Mac user, what benefits will I actually see from this IPv6 support?

• Ward26. May 2006, 16:21:52

  Error 404

• mecki26. May 2006, 16:22:37

  Are these big things to fix????

• dserl26. May 2006, 16:27:01

  Object not found!
  Waiting...still

• brummi0926. May 2006, 16:28:14

  if I click since 8393 on a address in a E-Mail, this is not opened.
  Over the detour right-click --> open goes it then.
  I also turned around the same problem. If I click in Opera on one E-Mail-Adress, nothing
  happens - only again over the detour: Right-click --> write E-Mail
  Still does someone have, or is with me the worm in it?
  Please excuse my bad english
  Ciao Jörg ;-)

  I'm not sure if it was mentioned here, so if it was, I'm sorry. There is a problem with marking in emails. After marking some words the mark changes to the words above that which I've chosen. I hope you get what I mean
  
  The same by me since 1-2 months.
  Ciao Jörg ;-)

  Also in 8432 unfortunately no changes

• Junyor26. May 2006, 16:32:31

  @brummi09: Disable 'Fit to width' to get it to work. We're aware of the problem.

• hotaru26. May 2006, 16:34:52

  i have a problem with this build... some text isn't showing up the "Transfers" thing: http://img389.imageshack.us/my.php?image=operabug7js.png
  
  it worked fine in the last build (284)... i'm using the linux static qt build on freebsd amd64 if that helps...

• MrFrodo26. May 2006, 16:38:05

  Crashed twice on the community forums here. Once logging in and once trying to go to the Mac forum.
  
  I deleted all prefs except skins and bookmarks...

• Teal_One26. May 2006, 16:46:40

  My bug (204116 [1]) is finally fixed. Thanks a lot!!!
  
  [1]
  File - Print options... - Page margins
  If you here enter a value greater than 1,50 (e.g. 2) then Opera takes 1,5 and not your value.

  Error 404 too.

• Junyor26. May 2006, 17:02:11

  The links seem to be working here now.
  
  @Teal_One: You're welcome.

• Ward26. May 2006, 17:05:12

  Try using a proxy - it works, albeit slower.

  JavaScript update Parent window not working since Beta 1.
  PLEEEEEEAAAAASE guys, can't be that hard to reactivate this feature!

• Junyor26. May 2006, 17:10:17

  @dafalias: Bug number?

• tomurbanowicz26. May 2006, 17:14:23

  @Ward: How to do it? HELP

• searchme26. May 2006, 17:25:31

  8432 downloaded but not yet installed for lack of time to test. But wow, look at that changelog! I see at least two items I had been watching for -- one of them (the cookie fix to ssp) -- that I think important to basic functionality of a very useful feature. Thanks for the double-click selection fix, too. There are other changes identified well enough that it is worth looking for them. But the really important change (if I don't delude myself) is the changelog itself. It shows impressive progress in a short space of time and it brings new fixes to everyone's attention. The more specific, the better, I think (up to the point where further precision is no help to testers). Well done!

• Ward26. May 2006, 17:33:24

  To download: Find a good proxy* and pop into network preferences >> Proxy servers and paste the IP and port numbers into the relevant fields for HTTP. Make sure HTTP is checked then OK your way out of all the dialogs.
  
  Try downloading again. It could take a few minutes or fail immediatly. If it does, try a different proxy - ideally one in the Netherlands.
  
  * Get your proxy IP and ports here

• White Elephant26. May 2006, 17:35:00

  THANKS A LOT,
  
  ....and you forgot to mention in your changelog that FINALLY the visited links keep their changed font.
  
  BUT
  
  there is a nasty regression:
  
  In build 8414 the page <http://www.rccc.org/recording/index.asp> was displayed correctly, as it has been for years using Opera to access it!!!
  
  But now, in build 8432, the Chinese Characters on the page are displaced. Please compare by opening this address with any version prior to build 8432 (or even - oh horrors - in M$ IE or Firefox) , and than using the current version. Even if your Chinese reading skills are a little bit wanting, you will see what I mean.
  
  But I will stick with Opera as my default browser come what may, because he who laughs last laughs best.
  
  Keep up the good work!

• Kanel26. May 2006, 17:42:21

  One crash at the Opera community forums for me. (See also the post by MrFrodo ^^)

• porneL26. May 2006, 17:48:25

  > Temporary download directory used for opening files in external applications can now be modified in opera:config
  
  At least some workaround for Mac Opera unzipping files to hidden directory!

• FataL26. May 2006, 17:49:01

  XSLT issue with not checked checkboxes solved!
  BTW, why this kind of fixes not included in changelog?

• zombie26. May 2006, 17:52:42

  - Still not synchronizing all IMAP folders.
  - bug-208625 not fixed.

• Junyor26. May 2006, 17:53:43

  @zombie: Is synchronization at least improved or do you see no difference?

• Alienz26. May 2006, 17:54:58

  Great that visited links problem has been fixed
  
  Crash 3 times at Opera community forum when trying to enter Betas, previews, and weeklies section.

• pholie26. May 2006, 17:56:19

  I am wondering, why you put out only static version for Ubuntu dapper?

• pip_26. May 2006, 17:57:06

  nice, now the taskicon works correct with fluxbox...

• zombie26. May 2006, 17:57:16

  @Junior: Can't see any difference from previous builds. I have to play more with it to say anything definite though.
  
  Let me know if you want me to set up a test account for you.

• Kanel26. May 2006, 17:58:23

  One more crash at this community...

• olli26. May 2006, 18:01:07

  lynott: Confirmed. Did you file a bug report? :-)

• toadbee26. May 2006, 18:01:52

  Hi Guys - really enjoying v9 thus far. My primary interest is in the IMAP capabilities and so a few comments:
  
  -I have 5 Imap accounts, passwords are not saved. When I start opera all of the password boxes pop up on top of each other, some steal focus even if I'm already typing in one. More importantly they do not remove focus from Opera itself - and so I often look up to see I've just done a google search on my password (google is my start page.)
  
  -Need Local Mailbox capabilties for archiving (or am i missing it)
  
  - would like a bypass for "imap sent folder" in the compose window as an option to not forward a copy anywhere
  
  
  

• Lito26. May 2006, 18:13:57

  A big and interesting changelog. Thank you!

• dafalias26. May 2006, 18:15:21

  @Junyor
  
  Filed bug report weeks ago. How can I find out bug report number?

• lynott26. May 2006, 18:16:12

  @Olli: Jup. Bug reported.
  Tried to install 8414 over 8432 (mm, I'm addicted to digit), but that didn't help. Option to repair only. Well, have to uninstall and reinstall 8414.

• Daedalus26. May 2006, 18:29:03

  Heh, first thing I noticed is that the default sans-serif font is now set to Arial instead of Verdana.
