  What happens with Office WebApps?, they never finish loading and keep on 95%....
  And they work on most browsers: IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari....
  I have alredy reported this (DSK-301804)
  
  BTW, DSK-301803 has been resolved.

• Maxim15. June 2010, 14:30

  I hope public beta will be without:
  
  1. bug (DSK-302064) with hidden input fields over inline elements (checkboxes in gmail or radiobuttons in http://webanketa.com/forms/68t30e1f6ww62rsr6mw36/)
  
  2. context menu of selected text starts with search-item. I don't know how under other OS, but under Windows it is very not regular... "Copy" was much better choise

• GreLI15. June 2010, 14:30

  Mail notification popup is still inaccessible (broken in previous build). Very annoying.

• getnikkoo15. June 2010, 14:32

  was'nt the last one a beta i saw it writen in "about opera "

  It looks that this doesn't work.

• Juan Andreu15. June 2010, 14:33

  Searching with Google in the search bar doesn't show suggestions.

• Witold Baryluk15. June 2010, 14:34

  Suggestion bar in F2 (go to) dialog, doesn't work at all now.

• Seldaek15. June 2010, 14:35

  Can't you define your geolocation in the settings somewhere if you're on a wired connection but still want accuracy btw? If not, why not?

• Hawk190215. June 2010, 14:36

  Good !

  It works only for Wikipedia and Yandex. Not a bug.
  
  But, i would like to have some standard for this, so everyone can add sugesstion for their own search engine using some API. JSON or XML based? I would also like to have customizable amount (3, 5, 8, 10, 15). of suggestions (including 0 to disable it).

  Are search suggestions going to be added for Google etc?

  Very good idea!
  
  Maybe this can be done using UserJS? By redefining geolocation methods?
  
  It will be faster, and no external services will be used (as i do not like to have any my private information in hand of google).

• markuznw15. June 2010, 14:38

  Could you please fix the facebook tags (@name) popup not showing up? Not life-killing, but useful anyway

  Nice. It works. I didn't know that dailmotion now supports OGG Theora encoded videos. Very good.

  Web Sockets are not in Opera yet. There was not even development build with it or even any statment about WebSockets from Opera Developers. Not bug.

• Witold Baryluk15. June 2010, 14:46

  I would much more like to define API or dataformat for this (preferable the same as is already used in Firefox, so site/search authors doesn't need to change much), so any user can add own suggestion mechanism.
  
  I would also like to customize (change number of suggestion or disable it completly) current behaviour of Wikipedia search suggesstion.

  Maybe ask site authors for checking what is wrong. It highly unprobably that opera developers would have any way to debug such big javascript application.

  Hmm, i don't know

  I think i always get "Copy". Linux i386.
  
  As of selecting. After double clicking on text, one word is selected and context menu shows. Wasn't that if one will triple click then whole paragraph or line will be selected? Now it doens't work.

• Witold Baryluk15. June 2010, 14:54

  Hmm, with plugins enabled (but with flash not installed) on http://rakaz.nl/, i can't click on links, even refreshing doesn't help. It happened also on previous build on some pages (i think this was becasue they used flash plugin), but mostly after refresh it worked. On http://rakaz.nl/ I found it always doesn't work. But if I disable plugins completly (using F12), then it works! Linux i386.

  But is this the same DataBase as used by Opera and Google? I do not think so.
  
  BTW. http://www.hostip.info/ Is also good open database but for IP addresses.

  I know you said you fixed the problem on google docs, but it's still not working here. The toolbar is still grayed out making it impossible to edit any document.

• DukePhillips15. June 2010, 15:10

  I'm almost afraid to look, but has hostname completion finally been fixed so it works the way it did before 10.5?
  
  We've certainly made enough noise about it...

  When Opera is not in full screen mode, there's an useless empty space on the right.

  New built-in fonts look terrible! Standard fonts looked better! ( on Windows )

• Vi Bash15. June 2010, 15:20

  I love the advantages of the 10.5/10.6 series. But there is one thing that, in my opinion is much worse than before. The arrange/restore functionality of tabs.
  First: Why don't they snap anymore? It makes it much more difficult to arrange two of them beside when they don't snap. It's also very difficult to place them directly on the browsers outline.
  Second: in all 10.5/6 releases I've tried out, they only move very slowly and cinda "lagg" when being moved. That makes it even more difficult to arrange them. It's almost impossible to arrange two of them in a way that they perfectly cover each other.

  I don't know what happened to the CJK font, but Korean characters became ugly again. I tried adjust some font settings but no luck. This is strange since this had not happened for a long time and suddenly came back in the last snapshot.

  Opera display the video, but I'm surprised with Midori (a lightweigth linux browser), It can work also in HTML5 test and have good results. BTW. Upgrading solve my IMAP bug, but I still missing my web pages using Aller font

• Perry15. June 2010, 15:45

  HTML5 Video works, but the performance is terrible compared to Chromium. I hope you work on this :-)
  
  But nevertheless, thanks for this build and your great work.

  WebM support for HTML5 video doesn't work in Win2000 (there are error messages).

  The 1st paragraph of this web-site is not shown properly can anyone confirm?

  Scroll down this web-site, it has too much blank space at the bottom.

  And scribd doesn't working in this beta (rc????) too, example:

  Please fix those bugs.

  Under Windows repeated clicking 5 times in direct repetition despite the popup popping up after the 3rd time does select the sentence, 2 more times (not counted exactly) the paragraph. May be under linux too? - but it is not nice that the default trippleclick doesn't do it.

• poorrichard0115. June 2010, 15:49

  Update to my earlier note: If I upgrade this snapshot over the previous one, Google docs still does not allow me to edit. But by doing a clean install into a new directory, Google Docs works.

• yiafar15. June 2010, 15:54

  There is a serious problem with Google Analytics site, https://www.google.com/analytics/reporting
  I cannot read the visitor's number of my site (there is a little pop up window when I put my mouse at mine site report).
  
  And a second problem at blogger.com. When I add a banner at my blog using HTML/JavaScript I cannot increase or reduce the size of it using Rich Text.
  
  Thanks.

  This also affects download popups.

  It still works if you type / after the domain name. I think you made too much noise about it already. This is trivial stuff. Check the changelogs if you want to know if a bug you reported is fixed. If its not there, then its not fixed yet.

  Confirmed, but this is probably a site problem not a bug. Report site problems in the Opera Browser forum. Read the sticky thread on how to do that.

  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
  
  videos on apple's site are not working for me somehow. (e.g. accessing this page http://www.apple.com/iphone/design/#design-video shows the download quicktime link and image) and it's not browser sniffing too. I've tried changing and masking as other browsers as well. in fact it's not been working for me through 10.5*, all the snapshots.
  
  But the videos play in Firefox, Chromium, Rekonq, Midori, and Epiphany. Is there something wrong with my settings. Because I'm absolutely sure i've got the required gstreamer good plugin packages, not just because the other browsers are having them. And I've got mplayer, and vlc as well.
  
  Here is my plugin path as configured in Opera. changing the order hasn't worked for me as well
  
  /usr/lib/opera/plugins:/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins:/home/sam/.mozilla/plugins:/usr/lib/firefox/plugins:/home/sam/.mozilla:/usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins:/usr/lib/chromium-browser:/usr/lib/flashplugin-installer:/usr/share/doc/chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra:/usr/local/lib/opera/plugins
  
  
  When i click check for new plugins, there is nothing detected.
  
  Is there something I'm missing? or is this some kinda bug, if so, I can report it?

• Adrien15. June 2010, 16:04

  @Maxim Search-item in first position is ok (same in Safari 5) just use copy shortcuts.
  --> Just a problem when double-clicking some text, we can't copy it while using Ctrl+C

• cedricpc15. June 2010, 16:05

  Video tag is still not working on my computer (Win XP SP1 32 bits) since the previous snapshot – no problem with 3413 – with the same error (DSK-302249) :

  I think that it is a showstopper for the beta because I am not the only one to encounter this problem.

  Congrats on a quick release. It shows that FINALLY you are working on the linux builds. Thank God.
  
  My M2 Mail is still facing issues. The unread feeds are not highlighted in black but rather the new feeds appear as "read". Further, I am unable to empty the trash for my mail! Strange but true. I wonder whether anyone else is facing the same issue.

  Please please fix it up!

  Geololocation is buggy.
  Right now it shows that I'm about 2 km far from my location.
  When i was tring it from my work, the mark on the map is about 60 km far away from me.
  Chromium geolocation is working good, I'm in 100 meters from mark on the map.
