Gmail has a feature that only works in Opera

September 2, 2009 · by Haavard

Google's David Bloom (yes, he has a blog at My Opera :smile:) points out that Opera is the only browser which supports "<input type="url">", which means that Opera is the only browser which works properly with Gmail's "Insert Link" feature in the rich text composer.

Head over to his blog if you want to see a screenshot.

    Nice move! If I would'mt read this first I'd said it was impossible, and it'd be a Chrome exclusive.

    Thank you.
