Opera 11.50

Door redactie op 28 juni 2011 - 17:06

Opera 11.50 verschenen. Deze versie van de Noorse browser heeft heel veel nieuwe functionaliteit. Voornaamste vernieuwingen zijn een nog lichtere interface, extensies voor de Speed Dial en een verbeterde Opera Link dat nu ook wachtwoorden synchroniseert.

Nieuwe, strakkere iconen en een nog minimalistischer uiterlijk - dat zijn de eerste indrukken bij het openen van Opera 11.50. Prettig dat alle overbodige poespas weg is en zeker ook stijlvol te noemen.

De Speed Dial (Snelkiezer) pagina kunt u nu uitbreiden met extensies. Bijvoorbeeld een extensie om het actuele weer te tonen. Zo wordt de Speed Dial pagina een soort overzichtspagina met allerlei widgets voor informatie. Alle extensies voor Opera - niet alleen voor Speed Dial - zijn hier te vinden.

Een van de meest aangevraagde nieuwe eigenschappen is dat Opera Link nu - eindelijk! - ook wachtwoorden synchroniseert. Dat werd tijd natuurlijk, want de concurrentie kan dit allang.

Verder is er onder de motorkap van Opera 11.50 het nodige veranderd (duizenden bugs zijn opgelost), en is de Noorse browser nu sneller en stabieler geworden.

U kunt alle wijzigingen nalezen in de release notes hieronder. Opera 11.50 is te downloaden voor Windows, Mac OS X en Linux. Een Nederlandse vertaling is ook aanwezig.

Opera 11.10

Door redactie op 12 april 2011 - 10:04

Na drie maanden is een nieuwe versie van de Noorse browser Opera uitgekomen. Opera 11.10 kent de nodige vernieuwingen en verbeteringen.

Zo is de Presto rendering engine sneller geworden en is er een plugin installatie wizard toegevoegd, zodat op eenvoudige wijze bijvoorbeeld een ontbrekende Flash plugin kan worden geïnstalleerd.

Verder ondersteunt Opera 11.10 het nieuwe WebP afbeeldingsformaat van Google, waardoor afbeeldingen bijna 40% kleiner worden. Dit is met name van belang voor Opera Turbo, een gratis webdienst van Opera voor trage internetverbindingen, waarmee webpagina's eerst - tot wel 80% - gecomprimeerd worden via de servers van Opera en pas daarna naar de browser verzonden worden - die hierdoor veel sneller.

Ook zijn er veel verbeteringen aan de mail-client van Opera doorgevoerd - met name aan de IMAP- en Gmail-ondersteuning. Voorts kan Opera nu overweg met veel meer HTML5- en css-elementen en zijn de mogelijkheden voor Opera's Speed Dial (snelkiezer) drastisch uitgebreid.

Ten slotte zijn heel veel crashes verholpen en fouten opgelost. U kunt alle wijzigingen nalezen in de release notes hieronder. Opera 11.10 is te downloaden voor Windows, Mac OS X en Linux. Een Nederlandse vertaling is ook aanwezig.

Release notes:
New and improved features
Code name

Opera 11.10 beta uses "Barracuda" as its code name.

Opera Presto 2.8 rendering engine

Opera 11.10 beta uses the new Opera Presto 2.8 rendering engine as identified in its user agent string.

Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en) Presto/2.8.131 Version/11.10

Plugin installation wizard

Enables easy installation of, for example, the Flash plug-in if it is missing from the system.

URL Filter API for Opera extensions


The URL Filter API for Opera extensions defines a DOM interface that allows extensions to add temporary rules to Opera's native content blocker. Rules added through this API are associated with an extension and apply as long as an extension is enabled. Once an extension is disabled or the browser is shut down, the temporary rules are discarded.

It defines the API that is applied to an extension browsing context.
An extension browsing context is a browsing context that implements the Opera extension interface (opera.extension).
See: URL Filter API for Opera extensions

WebP

Opera adds support for the Google WebP image format.

This enhances Opera Turbo's compression performance with images.
WebP is a new image format that provides lossy compression for photographic images.
A WebP file consists of VP8 image data, and a container based on the Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF).
See: WebP: A new image format for the Web
See: RIFF Container

Feature improvements
Declarative UI

Written in YAML:
A human friendly data serialization standard for all programming languages
A tool for visual layout development of YAML based CSS layouts
Improves:
Adaptation to different string sizes for different languages
Changes in layout for a specific platform to get closer to platform guidelines
Dialogs with variable contents

Feature discoverability

Subtle animations and messages have been added to improve discoverability of Opera features.

Opera Dragonfly beta 1

Opera has improved its Dragonfly debugging tool with the release of Opera Dragonfly beta 1. Opera Dragonfly covers the full debugging workflow, from inspecting network access and downloaded resources, to correcting JavaScript issues and seeing how CSS rules apply to the DOM. It supports all the newest web technologies, including SVG and HTML5 APIs such as Web Storage.

JavaScript debugger
Enables stepping through your code line by line, setting break points along the way.
Monitor the exact expression or specific variable in your JavaScript code.
Use the Break points panel to see exactly what caused a JavaScript fail.
Added new types of break points and more granular control.
CSS inspector
Check out what CSS rules apply to which element, and what rules are inherited or set by browser defaults.
Overridden rules are highlighted showing what styles are, or are not applied.
Use the CSS editing feature to edit existing properties and values.
Use the auto-complete feature to make editing faster and more convenient.
DOM inspector
Allows inspection of the updated DOM and all of its properties.
The DOM can be edited to experiment with changes directly in the browser.
Network inspector
Allows inspection of the HTTP request and response headers.
A summary of each request is shown, with the method type, response status and the time taken to be retrieved.
Drill down to see full details of each requests header.
Find latency, see how resources download and in what order, and even view cached resources.
Resource inspector
See all site resources such as images, scripts, fonts, HTML files and videos at a glance.
Storage inspector
Cookies and Web Storage can be dynamically updated, tested, inspected, and manipulated.
Error console
Allows you to see, filter and log any errors in your scripts, pointing to the exact position where the error occurred.
Use the Error console in combination with the other tools to hunt down and fix your site's bugs.
Debug your phone or TV
Debug pages whether they are on your computer or a supported device, such as a phone running Opera Mobile 10 for Windows Mobile.
You can connect to any device running Opera Presto 2.1 or above and debug using your computer's screen and keyboard. There is no need to struggle inputting test data with your phone's keypad again.
Opera Widgets can also be debugged via remote debugging.
Design utilities
A color picker and a screen magnifier allow you to pick out colors from a website or widget.
The average color of an area can be selected to make it easier to pick out colors from bitmap images.
Chosen colors can be stored in a palette for later access.
Open source
Built using the open web standards you know and love, Opera Dragonfly's source is available to view.
Not only that, but it is released on a Apache 2.0 license, meaning it is free as in freedom, as well as in beer.
Join in the project, or just check out the source code at the Opera Dragonfly repository.

Mail

Added support for phrase searching.
Improved CJK searches.
Improvements made to the panel, including a setting to disable automatic toggling.
Improved support when using the Opera Mail client with a Gmail IMAP account.
Opera now recognizes the special IMAP folders "Sent items", "Spam", "Trash" and treats them as equivalents of the native Sent, Spam and Trash views in Opera Mail. This also works for other IMAP servers that support the XLIST or SPECIAL-USE extensions for the IMAP specification, including the Fastmail IMAP service.
Opera now recognizes the special way in which Gmail duplicates messages that appear in the "All Mail" IMAP folder and the various folders created by Gmail's own "labels" (including Inbox). To make the best use of this, it is recommended that you subscribe to the all the Gmail IMAP folders (this is a change from earlier advice to suggested users to unsubscribe from the [Gmail]\* folders).
Opera Mail will then make sure that messages do not show up twice in its "Unread" and "Recieved" views. As for other views like "Mailing lists", "Contacts", "Labels", and "Attachments", duplication can still occur there. You can improve on this for now by unchecking "Show hidden" for such views (use the "View" button in the mail view, then "Show > Show hidden").

Search

Search hijacking protection: Opera now prevents third party applications from hijacking searches and other customizations in Opera.
Added a Search field to error pages, where the browser will make a search request over the net for suggestions and display them.

Speed Dial

Added Speed Dial animation to help when reordering (dragging and dropping) existing Speed Dial cells, using smooth visual cues.
Added a new "logo finder" which keys in on the main title of a page; diabled when "Reload every" is applied.
Improvements have been made to the Speed Dial flow layout.
Added the ability to set the number of Speed Dial columns (automatic by default).
Added a new dialog when adding/editing Speed Dials
It is now possible to add a custom title to Speed Dials, through the new add/edit dialog.
Sites can now reload Speed Dials automatically using one of two methods:
HTTP header: Preview-refresh: seconds
HTML code: <meta http-equiv="preview-refresh" content="seconds">
The Speed Dial thumbnail/icon is now determined using these criteria (in order):
Send a http header to tell the server it is a Speed Dial request
Detect big icons: <link rel=icon,apple-touch-icon ...> and display them instead of a thumbnail
Find the important part of the page (logo), and zoom in closer
Apply CSS view-mode: minimized when generating the thumbnail
Updated graphics for Speed Dial and callout dialogs
Speed Dial now has automatic zooming
Speed Dial options are instantly applied

Added support for the BeforeCSS and AfterCSS events.

Opera 11.01

Door redactie op 27 januari 2011 - 09:01

De eerste onderhouds- en beveiligingsupdate voor Opera 11 is verschenen. Versie 11.01 lost enkele beveiligingslekken op - waaronder een zero-day lek dat vorige week ontdekt werd - en verbetert de stabiliteit van de Noorse browser aanzienlijk.

Van de beveiligingslekken is er één kritiek (het vorige week geopenbaarde lek), zijn er twee ernstig, is één gemiddeld en één niet kritiek. Updaten is niet alleen aan te bevelen vanwege de veiligheid: in Opera 11.01 worden ook behoorlijk veel crashes van de browser en de mailcomponent opgelost.

Dit betreft onder andere crashes bij het sluiten van tabbladen, bij het twee keer aanklikken van een link, bij het openen van gedownloade bestanden en bij het laden van bepaalde websites. Ook in M2, het mailprogramma van Opera, worden diverse vastlopers gerepareerd.

Ten slotte worden veel kleine foutjes opgelost en de vertalingen geüpdate. Opera 11.01 is te downloaden voor Windows, Mac OS X en Linux. Een Nederlandse vertaling is ook aanwezig.

Opera 11.00

Door redactie op 16 december 2010 - 14:12

Opera 11 is verschenen. Deze versie van de innovatieve, snelle Noorse browser kent weer de nodige verbeteringen en vernieuwingen. De mogelijkheid om extensies te installeren (eindelijk) en een veilige adresbalk zijn de voornaamste.

Extensies werden node gemist in Opera, dat toch bekend staat als een vernieuwende browser. Pas jaren na de concurrentie zijn nu extensies beschikbaar die de functionaliteit uitbreiden. Veel zijn het er echter nog niet: 203 op moment van schrijven.

Een tweede belangrijke nieuwigheid is dat de adresbalk de beveiligingsstatus van een bezochte website weergeeft. Als de balk geel of groen wordt betekent dit bijvoorbeeld Beveiligd en Betrouwbaar.

Verder kunt u in Opera 11 tabbladen stapelen om meer overzicht te behouden. Sleep een tabblad op een ander tabblad en er komt een pijltje rechts op het tabblad. Klik hierop en u ziet de sites die onder dit tabblad verscholen zitten.

Ook heeft Opera nu een auto-update functie voor extensies en Opera Unite apps. Bovendien kunt u inschakelen dat Opera stilletjes update, net als Google Chrome.

Opera's mail-component is verder uitgebreid - veranderingen zitten onder andere in het Mail paneel, waar items nu naartoe gesleept kunnen worden. Opera is ten slotte veel sneller en stabieler geworden en is nu weer een van de snelste browsers.

Opera 11 is te downloaden voor Windows, Mac OS X en Linux. Een Nederlandse vertaling is ook aanwezig.

Release notes:

New features and improvements

Address field
An improved address field makes it easier to stay safe on the Web, and it now hides the complexity of long web addresses. It also provides more security information to help you stay safe when browsing; just click the badge for the website to see security information about the site you are visiting.
  • All webpages get a badge to the left of the address field. The badge replaces protocols like HTTP, HTTPS, and opera:, which are shown only when focusing on the address field.
  • Clicking the badge provides an easy overview of the potentially more complex security state of the current web page.
  • Parameters at the end of web addresses are visually hidden until the address field is focused. If you still want to see the whole address all the time, you can right-click the badge to disable this functionality.
  • There is now a badge indicating that you are browsing with Opera Turbo on. Clicking this badge gives information about estimated data savings for the Opera Turbo session.
Auto-update
An improvement to auto-update now makes sure you have the latest extensions and Opera Unite applications.
Bookmarks bar
The Opera Bookmarks bar is located directly below the Address bar, and replaces the old Personal bar.
Enabling the new Opera Bookmarks bar
  1. Click the O menu button.
  2. Select "Toolbars".
  3. Click the check box next to "Bookmarks bar".
If you want the Bookmarks bar to show in the former location of the Personal bar
  1. Open the Appearance dialog (Shift + F12) > "Toolbars".
  2. Click "Show hidden toolbars while customizing".
  3. Above the Address bar a Bookmarks bar appears. Click it once to mark it (a yellow outline will show around the bar).
  4. Click "Placement" and select "Top" inside the Appearance dialog.
  5. Mark the new Bookmarks bar located below the Address Bar, and choose "Placement Off".
  6. Click OK.
  7. The Bookmarks bar is now shown in the former location of the Personal bar.
Extensions
Opera extensions offer a way for you to easily add new functionality to your Opera browsing experience. Developers can easily create extensions using open standards (HTML5, CSS, JavaScript) and supported APIs. Opera extensions will be based on the W3C Widget specifications and this is being considered for an Open Standard effort.
  • Extensions will now run on secure sites (HTTPS) by default, and we have added a privacy setting where you can allow/disallow extensions to run on secure connections or in privacy mode (disabled by default).
  • Extensions now have a preferences page. Both the options page and privacy settings can be accessed from the extensions manager.
Some changes to requirements that will affect currently available extensions include:
  • Extensions must include an access request for the pages you want to access with the background process. You can do this by adding <access origin="http://example.com"> to the config.xml
  • Extensions must include an index.html file in the package, or include a <content src="//www.gratissoftwaresite.nl/downloads/someStartFile.html"/> in the config.xml.
  • Extensions must use broadcastMessage() properly:
    • broadcastMessage() only takes one argument: a string or an object literal.
    • So, use either broadcastMessage("hi"), or broadcastMessage({'say': 'hi' }
This means that some extension authors will have to update their extensions.
Mail panel
The Opera Mail panel has been improved with the following changes.
  • Decide which sections to show, and in what order.
  • Create folders to organize your mailing list and newsfeeds.
  • Filters are now called labels. Existing labels, custom labels and saved searches (as labels) are now located together under the Labels header in the Mail panel. The old filters, labels, and saved searches are now merged into the new, more powerful labels
  • In each category, (Attachments, Labels, Feeds, etc.) select which individual items to show and which items to hide.
  • Feeds can now be displayed in the panel without the need to enable a mail account.
  • The Mail panel automatically appears whenever you switch to a mail tab, and automatically returns to the previous state of the panels when moving back to a non-mail tab.
  • POP accounts now have Inbox and Sent views for themselves.
  • Multiple scrollbars are now changed to one global scrollbar for the mail panel. The scrollbar keeps section headers on top, which allows you to quickly scroll back up to them.
  • All mail search fields are now consolidated into one. This enables you to search wherever you want, with the help of a new toolbar that appears when searching.
  • You can save a search as a rule that will automatically label all the matching messages.
Plug-in loading
You can now set plug-ins to load only when you click on them, to significantly speed up browsing.
Presto 2.7 rendering engine
CSS3 Paged Media Module improvements
Support has been added for the object-fit and object-position properties.
  • The CSSWG decided to rename the image-fit and image-position properties to object-fit and object-position, but the W3C CSS3 Module: Paged Media has not been updated yet.
  • Since this CSS3 Module is not yet a specification, using these properties requires the addition of the Opera proprietary -o- prefix to each property. Opera recommends listing both formats in your style sheet.
CSS3 Text Module improvements
Renamed the -o-text-overflow property to text-overflow, and added support for ellipsis on multi-line blocks.
Encoding improvements
Big5-HKSCS support has been updated for the HKSCS-2008 encoding standard.
HTML5 improvements
Support has been added for the following:
  • HTML5 APIs:
  • HTML5 elements:
    • Support for the <progress> element
    • Support for the <meter> element
  • HTML5 Forms:
    • Support for <input type="search">
    • Support for <input type="file" multiple>
    • Support for <input placeholder="">
    • Support for <input type="color">
    • Support for <input type="tel">
    • Improved:
      • Updated the language string for HTML5 Forms
      • <input type="email"> validation
      • Default value for <input type="range">
      • out-of-range @value in <input type="range">
      • <input type="email"> now supports multiple emails as per the specification
      • Autofixing <input type="url"> without http://
    • Removed:
      • Support for <input type="file" min max>
      • Support for allowing a single control to be associated with more than one form
      • Support for WebForms from hasFeature
WebSockets support
Opera offers support for WebSockets which provide a way to communicate between script in a web page and the server in full-duplex mode with low latency. Opera supports version -00 of the WebSocket protocol (-76). WebSockets sets up one TCP connection and confirms that the server can speak WebSocket by doing a special handshake, after which the server and the client can send text messages over the connection at will, resulting in faster communication.
WebSockets support in Opera is disabled by default. Warning: This is due to flaws which can be exploited in the current WebSockets protocol. However, if you want to enable WebSockets in Opera:
  1. Type opera:config in the address bar and press Enter.
  2. In the Preferences Editor, expand the "User Prefs" topic and see "Enable WebSockets".
  3. Click the "Enable WebSockets" check box.
Search predictions
Search predictions from Google integrate into Opera's search field, and predict queries as you type, making searching quicker and easier. When using the search field or searching from the address field with the 'g' search keyword, Google search predictions will appear.
Speed improvements
Numerous advancements to various engines have been made to improve Opera's speed and benchmark test performance.
Tabs
Tab stacking
Opera invented tab browsing in the 1990s, and Tab stacking enhances tab organization in the user interface. Dragging one tab over another allows you to create groups of tabs. Now you can keep dozens of webpages open, organized, and under control. See our Tab stacking demonstration video.
Pinned tabs
The "Locked Tab" feature is improved and renamed to Pin Tab. Pinned tabs take up minimal space and are automatically moved to the left of other tabs to make them easy to find.
  • Right-click a tab and select "Pin Tab" from the menu. This pins it and prevents it from being closed by accident.
  • Unpin a tab by right-clicking it, and then uncheck "Pin Tab" in the menu.
User JavaScript
Support has been added for the W3C Web Storage API window.opera.scriptStorage property for user scripts alone.
Visual mouse gestures
Mouse gestures is another genuine Opera innovation that was first introduced in Opera 5.10 in April 2001. Visual Mouse gestures help you learn how to control Opera with mouse movements. A new interface guides you through the available gestures, making it easier to learn and use them.
  1. To see the new mouse gesture interface, hold (long press) the right mouse button down in any webpage.
  2. Then, move the pointer in any direction and the interface changes to reflect the actions that can be performed with subsequent movements.
  3. When you complete an action, a notification briefly shows what action you performed.
  4. Once you learn your favorite mouse gestures and perform them quickly, the interface will not display.
