Opera Masking

a quick tip for those of you that are still new to using the Opera web browser and haven't discovered this feature.

If you come accross a website that's not displaying properly. Right click anywhere on the page and select >Edit Site Prefrences>Network. Using this menu you can change the way that that website sees you. Even IF you are still using Opera it will think that you are using Firefox of Internet Explorer. It says on the Opera website: "Identifying as another browser keeps "Opera" in the user agent string, while masking removes all traces of Opera."

For stubborn websites, this won't always work and you may have to use another browser for that site and then come back to use it when you're finished, but it can save you a lot of time on a lot of websites.

Hope that helps you!
