Opera 11.10 to Include Password Synchronization
Our reader Mark has noticed an interesting piece of code in the latest Opera snapshot.
opera:config#OperaSync|SyncPasswordManager
Although password manager synchronization is yet to be announced, it does not stop us from doing that now.
On the side note, recent Opera 11.10 builds also include: new internal pages styling, speed dial animation and zoom and more.
Onclick Javascript Does Not Work in Google Chrome and Firefox?
If you have found that onclick event does not work on Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari web browsers, then here is quick way to fix it:
Replace onclick form id with its name
For example, let’s say you have the following:
id=”form1″ name=”checkform1″
Find JS event:
onclick=”document.form1.cSSld.value=””
Replace with:
onclick=”document.checkform1.cSSld.value=””
All set. It now works with all web browsers.

Opera 11.10 Upgrades Speed Dial
Opera Software has just confirmed that one of the enhanced features in the upcoming Opera 11.10 release will be a new Speed Dial which layout is now called “Speed Dial Flow”.
As a result, a new snapshot reveals the very first piece of all upcoming changes that are yet to come (see screenshot above).
Please note that this is not a final speed dial version.
Our guess is: Google Chrome like (“Most Visited sites”) behavior.
In addition to that, there will be some subtle animations and messages to remind new Opera users about all the features available in Opera web browser.
If you would like to try a new build (pre-alpha), please visit the following page.
