Some sort of compatibility issue I guess Steve, your smugmug site is loading fine here ( firefox ), maybe an email to smugmug asking about issues?

[ricktas]

Opera doesnt like AP either. Do you see the same ad four times on each page of the site?

[stevemack]

i think its just a setting somewhere on the opera taskbar but stuffed if i know

Rick i see 2 ads on each page.

steve.

[ricktas]

2 at top and 2 at bottom and i reckon they are all the same ad? Opera does that, all other browsers, members see 4 different ads

Maybe Smugmug was down for a while, Steve - Smugmug works fine in Opera. I just tried it, works perfectly. So does AP for that matter. If it didn't, I probably wouldn't come here (because after you get used to Opera, using an ordinary browser is a drag).

[stevemack]

Nah definatley something in my opera settings it still wont load the pics when you click on the thumbnails. AP has always worked brilliant for me never any probs with any other site other than smug mug.

You didn't do something silly like untick "send referrer information" in tools/oprefferences/advanced/network? That would break a lot of sites.

[stevemack]

Nah refferer logging is ticked

Steve, post the address of a particulra Smugmug page that doesn't work for you in Opera. Let's make sire that I'm testing the right thing.

[stevemack]

Ok this is a page of my site that should be my landscape gallery
but is blank no pics on opera here.

Wow! Some nice shots there!



As you can see, Opera works perfectly on that site.

OK, it's not an Opera problem, what is it? Let's try some questions to narrow the problem down a bit.

1: does it work OK in another browser (e.g., Firefox, Seamonkey)?
2: what anti-virus and firewall software are you using?
3: (via edit) What drugs are the Smugmug web designers taking? That's a daft way to write a website. No matter, we know Opera copes OK with it, but they still ought to be shot for writing a crappola pile of junk code like that and calling it a web design, Brllfsp!

[stevemack]

Ok works fine with IE
Anti-Virus/NOD 32
Firewall/microsoft standaed.

[Tannin]

OK, Nod32 should be OK, and the Windows firewall is just about the only Microsoft security product worth spitting on.

1: Back up your Opera bookmarks, (Check help/about Opera for the location - pprobably something like: C:\Documents and Settings\steve\Application Data\Opera\Opera\bookmarks.adr

2: Uninstall Opera (through control panel/add-remove programs)

3: delete the Opera preferences data (delete a folder with a name like C:\Documents and Settings\steve\Application Data\Opera)

4: reboot

5: reinstall Opera

That certainly ought to do it.

[stevemack]

Well just Uninstalled opera and rebooted it and works fine now

Thanks for helping out tony appreciated

Excellent!
