Moderators rridgely Posted April 11, 2007 Moderators Share Posted April 11, 2007 The newest version of opera is out. It has a pretty cool new feature called "speed dial" which is basically a keyboard shortcut using ctrl+1-9 that will open up pages that you assign to them. Very nice. (to see the new feature just open a new tab. Thats where you assign what the keys do. I just wish they would have let me picked out of my bookmarks. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony A Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 That feature has been available in Maxthon for a long time now. It's great if you like the key board. I hate the key board and prefer to use it as little as possible so it's easier for me to just use book marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony A Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Actually now that I have taken a closer look the speed dial feature is much cooler than what Maxthon has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators DennisD Posted April 12, 2007 Moderators Share Posted April 12, 2007 I still can not get any version of Opera to run on my PC (XP SP2). Ran it once when I first came to the forum last year. Whatever I try now, I can not get it to connect to the Internet, although I have a direct connection. Any ideas anyone? I use and will probably continue using Firefox. But this is a puzzle that is doing my head in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted April 12, 2007 Moderators Share Posted April 12, 2007 If you can't get Opera to work it could be because of proxy settings, or the lack of proxy settings. I personally had to stop using Opera because out of nowhere it wouldn't work with my proxy ad filtering software which is also something I stopped using altogether after switching to Firefox with Adblock Plus.

I've tried changing every setting I can find in Opera. I don't use a proxy server, and every other browser I've tried has ran from my default internet settings. Opera did a few months ago, but not now, and the only filtering software I use is a Firefox add on, Flashblock. This couldn't effect Opera surely? Although nothing would surprise me in the wonderfully unpredictable world of computer software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
