I don't know Opera. But you seem to not have a Status Bar?

Lord Paca · Feb 22, 2007, 05:19 AM // 05:19

It worked without a status bar before...
I had status bar on when I discovered that my page was cut off, then I removed it to see if it would help any, I didn't.

It's an error in the site coding that started happening a while back. All you can do is pray that they'll fix it.

No need for an obtrusive status bar in Opera. It pops up in the right hand side of the address field when loading a page.

Actually, if it renders correctly in Firefox (Mozilla Engine) and Internet Explorer It is much more likely that it is a Browser Rendering Engine problem that would require a hack or work around for Opera Only, that does not classify as a coding error that classifies as a software bug.

Opera is widely considered more standards compliant than both IE and Mozilla-based browsers. Run the auction index through W3C's validator as XHTML 1.0 Transitional as the doctype states and you'll get close to 300 errors.

With that many errors, it's much more likely to be a coding error than a browser error.

Um, dunno what you did the last time you checked it, but there are hardly 300 errors. The page is actually written closer to HTML 4.01 standards then to XHTML though there are still some 81 errors related to meta information, the page should not be written using that Document type, not to mention that its declaration is wrong.

So Ill give you that, but its been a long time since someone told me that opera was considered more standards compliant then a Mozilla variant, though I am seeing that opera 9 finally meets Acid 2.

Run it through the validator with the URL. UTF-8, XHTML 1.0 Transitional, and it'll throw 290 errors at you.

It has been passing Acid2 for a year, unlike both Internet Explorer and Firefox.

I get the same problem here. I use primarily Opera, and the only section that is affected is guru auctions.

There's a definate problem with the style sheet for the auction area, when you hit the author/user mode in opera, (shows the page without any formatting for you non-opera users) all the information is there.

So, if somone handy with the sites CSS or the like, would check out the auction sections and possibly discover the error causing this.
