Is it just me kept running into issues with Opera? I really don't
remember having these problems so obvious with pre-version 9.5 that I
can't tolerate. I am getting this impression that the evolution of
Opera has come to an end and now it's rapidly reversing back to the
buggy primitive state that it almost mimics IE 6's behavior and the
worse, I don't have a conditional comment to make it works better.
From some articles I have read, I got a sense that Opera folks are
very proud of the CSS3 spec achievement, but my take is, if I have to
make double effort to have my layout render just slightly closer to FF
and Safari, I can't afford to care all those shiny CSS3 attributes and
Selectors. What is more aggravating is that it's less than 3%
population that needs to support.
I still have not fixed the problem I have had from my previous post
(and still can't figure why the link and text are not clickable/
selectable), now I am seeing another two little problem.
In this link, it illustrates two issues: the screen shots on the right
are taken from Opera, as you can see, the background image drops to
the bottom in the breadcrumbs.

And the button, it works likes IE does, the difference is that IE
doubles the width and Opera doubles the height.
My font size declared in the body tag:
font: normal 100.1%/1.5em
Obviously Opera got it wrong again somewhere with em and pixel
calculation. Is this another new bug or something so old that never
got fixed ?
And here is another Opera problem I stumbled few days ago when I was
doing Opera bug hunting:
The page uses Prototype Glider script:
http://marinersq.com/index.php?id=50
In Opera, you will see clicking the snapshot on the left changes
nothing.
Turn out I goofed, I forgot to load the script in the page (time
wasted: over 24 hours):
<script type="text/javascript">
var my_glider = new Glider('glider', {duration:0.5, frequency: 4});
</script>
But the fact that page still works (except without glider effect) in
all other browsers make me think this is just another bug of Opera.
Here is the working page with glider script loaded.

if you go to homepage of the site, you will see another Opera opacity
bug.
