Hi Chris,

I completely agree with your comments about the Woods surname ;)

As you could probably gather from my review, I'm impressed with Opera9.5 but as a web developer, it's unlikely to become my browser of choice purely due to the extensions.

Recent versions of Opera do offer similar functionality to the web developer toolbar and I know of a few developer's that swear by Opera but the familiarity and ease of use of Firefox's make it my choice.

@omar: I'd just like to point out that Opera aren't to blame for the problems with websites. Opera are the furthest advanced with web standards and therefore any problems you're experiencing are probably due to poorly coded websites.

It's something all developers should be testing for now but unfortunately all too many so called designers still mainly target IE users.

Thanks
Dave Woods

Hello:

I've been using Opera "on and off", but can't seem to get a good taste of this browser. My main problem is downloading websites.

Many of my favorite sites won't load properly in Opera; then I have to return to Flock or Firefox browsers.

Another thing that I find very cumbersome and confusing is the help menu. Finding information there is walking through a maze.

I prefer Firefox or Flock due their simplicity and more user-friendly environment.

Regards,

Omar.-
