Opera Mobile 10 and its remote debugging party trick
4 Nov 2009 | 3:27 amOn the Opera Developer Network blog there's an article by Daniel Davis we recommend reading for anyone interested in Mobile Web development and debugging: Following on our Opera Mini 5 beta launch, we've just announced the release of another mobile browser — this time it's Opera Mobile 10 beta for Symbian. While they both feature a similar redesigned UI, Opera Mobile 10 makes the most of your smartphone's capabilities, featuring a full JavaScript and layout engine.

Opera is the best Browser you have never heard of
30 Oct 2009 | 6:39 amAt least according to Associated Content who writes: Introducing Opera, a super fast lightweight web browser. Opera is an incredible web browser. It has become my favorite for surfing the web. I cannot believe how few people actually know it exists. Especially when so many people surf the web on it every day. Good to hear that Opera's getting more and more acknowledged. :up: -

Change Opera Speed Dial background image automatically
I have more than 500 beautiful wallpapers :yes: including lone tree and images in Hindu Gods & Goddesses photo album. Changing Speed Dial background image is boring after several times and time consuming. So, I have added an option in Opera Launcher to change Speed Dial background image automatically with one of the images from specified directory after specified time interval. Set time interval to 0 days, to see new Speed Dial background image after every Opera startup. -

Static resources on lighttpd
29 Oct 2009 | 2:11 pmIt's been a while since we deployed the first static server for My Opera.It was a really necessary step, because we had, and we continue to have, lots of static resources to be served.A while back, most of these resources were served by applications, causing much more load on servers than necessary.Now most of the heaviest ones have been already moved to the static servers.Some months ago we also added support for partitioning of the user resources in our storage software layer. That means making sure that if we have the need to scale serving of resources on different machines, we can either… -

files.myopera.com outage this morning

Slashdotted again...
21 Jul 2009 | 10:42 amMy Opera was on Slashdot again today! This time is Hallvord's fault :-) Yesterday he wrote a blog post about an epic Javascript fail that today was picked up by several major web sites in Norway and in the U.S. and mostly probably elsewhere. We realized there was something strange going on because of the unusual load and number of requests on our front-end servers. Analyzing the logs, it was clear that Hallvord's post was getting lots of pageviews per second, mostly from Slashdot, but also from Reddit and from the norwegian online magazine Digi. The blog post was immediately put into our list…

First I tried their online contact form. No response. A few days later, I tried another contact form, again no response. Hmmm....Then I found out a few email addresses. I wrote to… -

Onestat.com's browser sniffer older than my son
Seems the boss has been browsing web stats again - I came across a bug report from him saying a DHTML menu on onestat.com only works once. (Load page, click any "demo" link at the bottom and try the menu on the left.)I'm not paying that much attention to stats myself, being too busy doing the work that will hopefully smoothen out compatibility problems and make it possible to grow our usage share. It's exactly the type of brokenness Jon found on onestat.com I fear the most - a bit hidden away, subtle, annoying when the user needs that page to work but perhaps not… -

Most expensive javascript ever?
I've wanted to tell this story for a while, and I don't think I'm spilling any beans or disclosing any sensitive information at this point.So, a while ago Opera Software needed more servers. Not just a few servers either - we were planning Opera Mini's growth, implementing Opera Link, and My Opera was also growing quickly. We predicted crazy server load increases for the foreseeable future (and man, were we right!)Clearly we needed to make a massive investment on the server capacity front (basically buying these shiny things and then some.)Management put a hefty check on… -
Facebook monitors your alert() usage
If you use a bookmarklet on Facebook and it calls window.alert(), it doesn't quite do what you expect. They've re-defined the entire alert() method - it will pop up a box, but it will also behind the scenes send what you tried to pop up to the server!?! Look at Facebook's alert code (shown in an appropriate setting, of course): Since I routinely use alert() for debugging, should I be paranoid now?I really wonder what this feature is intended for and whether they actually harvest this data and use it for anything.

Where's the Flash support in Opera Mobile 10 for Symbian S60?
Update: Opera Mobile 10 for S60 apparently does not support plugins yet. As it is a beta, this might change in the final version.If you are wondering whether Opera Mobile 10 for S60 supports Flash or not (and if not, if it will ever support it), the short answer is (as far as I know):You need the Flash plugin.No browser supports Flash natively, since Flash is a plugin. This means that as long as a browser supports plugins and a Flash plugin is available for your platform, it should be possible to use the plugin to view Flash content. Some browsers also use a remote server to handle the plugin… -

Bill Gates sums up Microsoft's abusive history
Note/update: For those too lazy to read the whole thing, this is about Microsoft's history. It shows their history of consciously anti-competitive behavior. It is aimed at those who have little knowledge of Microsoft's history. To learn more, read this document by ECIS: A History of Anticompetitive Behavior and Consumer HarmIt seems that some people are still doubting that Microsoft has consciously sought to undermine competition by abusing their position in the market. In fact, some are outright denying any wrongdoing on Microsoft's part, and if there was any wrongdoing then… -

"This is your brain on Kafka"
This Is Your Brain on KafkaAbsurdist literature, it appears, stimulates our brains.That's the conclusion of a study recently published in the journal Psychological Science. Psychologists Travis Proulx of the University of California, Santa Barbara and Steven Heine of the University of British Columbia report our ability to find patterns is stimulated when we are faced with the task of making sense of an absurd tale. What's more, this heightened capability carries over to unrelated tasks.In the first of two experiments, 40 participants (all Canadian college undergraduates) read one… -
The SVG path
The last W3C working group I participated in, Multimodal Interaction (MMI), is at the periphery of the Web and is unlikely to make much of an impact on it in the foreseeable future. However they have produced a few interesting specs (and a few uninteresting frameworks), one of which I will return to in much greater detail later. The most obscure one may be InkML. The name might imply a language for tagging with paint, but is really describing the set of movements registered by a touch-sensitive tablet or screen so that the scribbles you make can be processed and enhanced by someone more… -

Into the bog
This entry was actually made, well conceptualised, back in early July when I wrote several entries on HTML5 and XHTML2. If I made it then it could be considered prophetic, though it would only show a Nostradamus-style prophetic ability ("there will become a war, and in that war some people will suffer badly"). I lost that opportunity, but if something is worth doing, it is worth doing very, very slowly. And trust me, there will become a war, and in that war some people will suffer badly. -

A Compact Setup
I've been playing around with a new setup, that should be usable, useful, but also 'small' in a visual sense. So without a menu bar! Almost all Opera functions will be easily accesible. But not necessarily all from the main toolbars, which was what the ribbonesque Twelve setup tried to do. For now I've named it Compact, but suggestions are welcome for something more memorable. (No, not Chrome. Scandium maybe? Zircon?)So starting with the Twelve setup, I removed lots of items (though many are still available from the Appearance dialog), moved the navigation controls back to… -

In Part 3, I'd like to discuss why I feel the underlying architecture seems flawed from a usability perspective and how that demonstrated itself in Part 2.As a reader pointed out to me.

22 Sep 2009 | 11:35 amGreetings Usability Fans, Amateurs and Professionals!I've decided, unwisely for myself*, to spend some time reviewing the new Opera Unite feature being tested and with plans for general release soon. I enjoy Opera and for the amount of work being put into this new feature it was time to give it a go and being the Usability Amateur that I am, I wanted to share my experience.I'm going to work backwards. The first thing I did with Opera Unite was use it. I did not read about it. I heard from a friend that he had used it and it "basically turned your computer into a server." I think… -
Proclamation: I will never use a browser that doesn't support mouse gestures as long as I live
15 Sep 2009 | 9:53 am(...unless forced to by work)Post updated 17 SeptSeriously- I love the irony of people haggling over milliseconds of JavaScript rendering times for pages, but don't bat an eye at the amount of time spent waste pushing a mouse pointer around the screen to find the "back" button, the "X" on the tab,the "new tab" button, or moving your hand back and forth from the keyboard to the mouse. I would think the user's "Locus of Attention" would at least factor in to the equation to some extent.To me, reading a page and being able to have my browser respond to my…

Remime.com. Promises To Remind You For Special Events And Birthdays
6 Nov 2009 | 1:40 pmHere is one application that everyone would like - Remime.com, because it promises to send you an email and remind you for special events and birthdays. Once you create an account you will be able to input all the birthdays of your friends and family, and the service will email you a notification so you won’t forget them. Remime.com is in Beta and you have a choice of receiving the birthday reminders one week or two in advance or on the same day or a day before. Another interesting fact about the site is that two of the co-founders live in two different countries and they had never met. -
Nine eReaders Promise To Entertain The Reader of eBooks
3 Nov 2009 | 11:08 amBesides Kindle and Sony eReader ( see our past coverage ) there are new eBook readers on the market now who try to gain popularity among users and promise to entertain the reader of eBooks. Some of the eBook readers are domestic ( Nook & QUE), others like (Elonex eBook & Fujitsu FLEPia) are foreign born - UK and Japan respectfully. Nook (released by Barnes & Noble) looks a lot like Amazon’s white plastic e-book reader, only instead of the chiclet-keyboard there is a color multitouch screen, to be used as a keyboard or to browse books, cover-flow style ...

Facebook And Apple Are Fundamentally Changing Ways People Communicate
23 Oct 2009 | 12:51 pmThis is the first time we are covering this report but I think that for everyone involved in emerging technology it is interesting to know what lies ahead. At the Web 2.0 Summit, every year Mary Meeker, an analyst from Morgan Stanley conducts a presentation of internet trends. In short she foresees mobile usage to be bigger than most experts calculate and forecasts that regulators can help advance or slow mobile internet evolution.

I Really Love Writing About Technology
20 Oct 2009 | 4:01 amYou have probably noticed that I am not posting as frequently as I used to. If I tell you that I am busy, you will probably answer “Who isn’t?", and you are right. Anyway, I am not trying to find an excuse not to post because I really love chatting about technology. What I am trying to find is time because 10 months ago, I interviewed for the position of Help Desk Manager with my current employer Queens Library and luckily for me and I hope for the library, I got the job. I also had a little set back when Newsgator decided to drop their free RSS tool for the masses and I had to find… -
Google Adds Drag and Drop in Gmail, Acquires ReCaptcha, Signs A Deal for Print-On-Demand Titles And Starts Google Sidewiki
13 Oct 2009 | 1:07 pmThe fact that we are not talking about Google doesn’t mean that nothing is happening at the headquarters of the search giant. In the hot summer months Google made the Gmail community happy by adding drag and drop capability for messages. With the new feature customers will be able to drag messages into labels, and labels onto messages. More details are available from the Official Gmail blog.

Where's the Flash support in Opera Mobile 10 for Symbian S60?
4 Nov 2009 | 6:40 amUpdate: Opera Mobile 10 for S60 apparently does not support plugins yet. As it is a beta, this might change in the final version.If you are wondering whether Opera Mobile 10 for S60 supports Flash or not (and if not, if it will ever support it), the short answer is (as far as I know):You need the Flash plugin.No browser supports Flash natively, since Flash is a plugin. This means that as long as a browser supports plugins and a Flash plugin is available for your platform, it should be possible to use the plugin to view Flash content. Some browsers also use a remote server to handle the plugin… -

Bill Gates sums up Microsoft's abusive history
4 Nov 2009 | 3:00 amNote/update: For those too lazy to read the whole thing, this is about Microsoft's history. It shows their history of consciously anti-competitive behavior. It is aimed at those who have little knowledge of Microsoft's history. To learn more, read this document by ECIS: A History of Anticompetitive Behavior and Consumer HarmIt seems that some people are still doubting that Microsoft has consciously sought to undermine competition by abusing their position in the market. In fact, some are outright denying any wrongdoing on Microsoft's part, and if there was any wrongdoing then it was surely… -

Opera Core Concerns

Automated regression testing of the browser core
13 Oct 2009 | 7:13 amThe cornerstone of all testing done on the core of the Opera browser is our automated regression testing system, named SPARTAN. The system consists of a central server and about 50 test machines running our 120 000 automated tests on all core reference builds. The purpose of this system is to help us discover any new bugs we introduce as early as possible, so that we can fix them before they cause any trouble for our users. Step one: Preparing a build Before SPARTAN can test anything, it will require a build to test. Our build system automatically creates builds every night and pings SPARTAN… -
Opera's site patching
7 Apr 2009 | 3:55 pmYou know the complexity of web technology is getting out of hand when every website needs some special treatment. Imagine driving a car if you had to change the engine slightly or replace wheels every time you turned a corner and entered a new street? Browser development is a lot like that these days. Nearly every modern browser has site patching features, to grease the wheels where the nuts and bolts of standards are exposed to the unpredictable elements of the web: IE8 shows sites on the compatibility list in IE7-mode Google Chrome spoofs on Hotmail Safari has obscure, un-documented… -
Geolocation-enabled build
26 Mar 2009 | 3:42 amWe are delighted to release the first build of Opera with geolocation support. The geolocation Working Group of the W3C has recently relased the first Working Draft of the geolocation API specification, and we are now releasing the first Labs build with support for the API. The API is used in a web page's Javascript code to retrieve the current latitude and longitude of the browser. The following snippet shows how a web page would request the browser's location: // One-shot position request: navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showMapCallback); function showMapCallback(position) { //… -
Test automation with OperaWatir
6 Mar 2009 | 5:40 amTo make sure new versions of our browser core are of sufficient quality before making their way into any of our products, we run more than 100,000 automated tests on a number of different reference configurations every time we have a new build. We run automated visual tests, JavaScript tests, selftests, performance tests, stability tests, memory tests and a lot more. One thing we have been missing, however, is automated tests for the things that require some sort of user interaction--clicking links, filling out forms, interacting with complex Web applications. That is ... until now. We are… -
New in Opera Presto 2.2: TLS 1.2 Support
25 Feb 2009 | 6:27 amOne of the new, but less obvious, features in Opera Presto 2.2 and Opera 10 is support for version 1.2 of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, the protocol formerly known as SSL. TLS 1.2 was released as RFC 5246 last August, replacing TLS 1.1 (RFC 4346). What is new in TLS 1.2? This version of the protocol has several new features: The way calculation of encryption keys is performed is made more dynamic, and new ciphersuites (set of encryption methods used by a connection) can define their own method, rather than having only the default one. This was necessary because some suites,…

Key fixes and a focus on stability
Time for another snapshot and also time for another team member to announce it!Since I'm involved in UNIX/Linux testing it seems appropriate that I should be the one to announce a snapshot with some nice UNIX fixes. Firstly it seems we got around the Qt 4.5.3+ 100% CPU issue. Also a fix for freezes during DST-to-normal time switch. Finally, we noticed that a few of you were having problems getting Opera to pickup your default Qt style. If you are one of those users try running Opera with the new '-systemstyle' argument.Of course it is not just Linux specific fixes. There are… -

Google Chrome DOES NOT Have 30 Million Users
4 Nov 2009 | 5:02 amIt seems that press is picking up a story about Google’s Chrome users count. What they fail to realize is the fact that browser had 30 million active users more than 4 months ago. “It’s been an exciting nine months since we launched the Google Chrome browser. Already, over 30 million people use it regularly.” Posted on 7/07/2009. So, no, Chrome does not have 30 million users, it has over 40 million of them. Market share: July, 2009 – 2.59% – 30 million users reported October, 2009 – 3.58% – ~38% increase = 41 million + users. -

I made an update to my WPF timeline post, but I wanted to make sure that the correction was seen by people who may not revisit that post. The SRD blog post which revealed that Firefox users were also exposed to the IE vulnerability was published on Tuesday, not Monday. The post is labelled as having been published Monday, and the timeline including that survived review by Microsoft, but nonetheless it was an error that I published, so I’ll own it. To the best of my knowledge, the SRD post which informed us and the world of the Firefox exposure was published on Tuesday after the patch and… -
HTTP Archive Specification
We have been working with Simon Perkins and Steve Souders on an open format for exporting HTTP tracing information. It's called HTTP Archive (HAR) and we have just finished spec v1.1. The format is already supported by Firebug (with NetExport extension installed), HTTPWatch 6.2 and also DebugBar 5.3. Further tools like Show Slow and Cesium could be the next. The key idea is to have a common format for archiving HTTP information that are captured by HTTP sniffers. These logs contain valuable info about page load performance and can be further used to analyze and optimize weaknesses of the… -

So I wrote some code and sure enough, reading in libxul on top of our main() function does indeed result in a significant measurable speed-up on both Linux and OSX. From the gnome page I found a link to some diskstat stuff. There lay a presentation with graphs that appear to show that OpenOffice has a…
