I noticed that today myself but I think the problem lies not with TB!
but with the the fact that the FAQ was prepared using the BrainStorm
mind mapping and thinking tool.
Three separate issues are involved:
1).- The Bat! - but this issue has nothing to do w/ TB!
2).- The Bat! FAQ - which is found on Marck's own website.
3).- The fact that the FAQ was prepared using the BrainStorm
mind mapping and thinking tool.
Frankly, I reacted much the same as used did, initially. But while the
messages you mention may have coded into the website (i.e. Marck may
have done that), I recognized that the BrainStorm mind mapping and
thinking tool (which DOES provide a pretty neat way to navigate within
the FAQ) evidently uses javascript code that isn't compatible with
Opera. IOW, the culprit is the BrainStorm's author.

That's not how you do it. You have do: File / Quick Preferences / and
then uncheck Enable Javascript. If you do that, the flat version
of the FAQ loads. However, I liked the way Brainstorm worked and open
up M$IE to check it out - of course I shut it down when done.
