Opera 10.61

Door redactie op 12 augustus 2010 - 11:08

Opera 10.61 is de eerste update voor de 10.6x-serie van de Noorse browser. Versie 10.61 is een beveiligingsupdate die drie lekken in de browser dichtplakt. Een is kritiek, een gemiddeld van ernst en een heeft lage prioriteit. Verder worden in deze uitgave van Opera de nodige fouten verholpen en crashes opgelost. 

Onder andere de compatibiliteit met Google Calendar is vergroot, problemen met widgets en foutieve cookie-instellingen zijn gerepareerd en een bug waardoor uitvoerbare bestanden als tekst in Opera werden geopend (in plaats van dat er een dialoog-venster werd getoond om het bestand op te slaan of uit te voeren) is gefixt.

Fraude bescherming heeft een naamsverandering gekregen en heet nu Fraude en Malware bescherming. Nieuw is ten slotte ook de standaard-instelling dat alle cookies geaccepteerd worden tegenwoordig (dus ook van derde partijen blijkbaar).  Lees hieronder over alle wijzigingen.

Opera 10.61 is uitgebracht voor Windows, Mac OS X en Linux.

  • Installing Opera 10.60 windows overwrites saved search preferences

Display and Scripting

Fixed
  • Google Calendar compatibility
  • Unite listening on UDP 1900 even if UPnP service discovery is off
  • Several cases where widgets will not run

  • Printing from print preview results in either a freeze or corrupted page
  • Widgets not having access to a network after restart

Opera 10.60

Door redactie op 1 juli 2010 - 12:07

Tien dagen na Opera 10.54 heeft de Noorse softwareproducent versie 10.60 van zijn browser uitgebracht. In Opera 10.60 is een vrachtlading aan veranderingen doorgevoerd. Grootste wijziging is dat de langverwachte Presto rendering engine nu eindelijk is geïmplementeerd. Hierdoor beschikt Opera over nieuwe HTML5-mogelijkheden als Geolocatie, Offline webapplicaties, Web Workers en de WebM video-codec van Google.

Door het optimaliseren van de JavaScript engine is Opera 10.60 maar liefst 50% sneller dan Opera 10.50. Veel onafhankelijke tests van de proefversies van Opera 10.60 lijken bovendien tot dezelfde conclusie te komen: Opera is op bepaalde onderdelen weer de snelste browser die er is.

Ook zijn twee beveiligingslekken gedicht in Opera 10.60. Een is gemiddeld en een is minder ernstig. Ten slotte zijn heel veel kleine foutjes opgelost in deze versie van de Noorse browser. Lees hieronder over alle wijzigingen.

Opera 10.60 is uitgebracht voor Windows, Mac OS X en eindelijk ook voor Linux (dat het lang moest doen met versie 10.10).

Release notes:

New features

Opera Presto 2.6 rendering engine

  • Opera 10.60 final contains the Opera Presto 2.6 rendering engine, which improves stability and adds support for the following new Opera features.

Geolocation services

  • User-enabled geolocation services are provided through Google Location Services (GLS).
  • IP address and WiFi recognition are implemented.
    • IP address recognition works with GLS by recognizing your IP address and telling you the cordinates based on it.
    • WiFi recognition works with GLS by gathering and then sending a list of all nearby wireless networks including MAC (Media Access Control) address, SSID (Service set identifier) name, and signal strength, which returns your coordinates.
  • An address bar map pin icon indicates a Web page is accessing the Geolocation API.
  • Opera geolocation services support the W3C Geolocation API Specification (http://www.w3.org/TR...).
  • See this Opera demo (http://html5demos.co...).

Offline Web Applications

Web Workers

  • Web Workers (http://www.w3.org/TR...) is an API for running scripts in the background independently of any user interface scripts. This allows for long-running scripts that are not interrupted by scripts that respond to clicks or other user interactions, and allows long tasks to be executed without yielding to keep the page responsive.
  • See this Opera demo (http://html5demos.co...).

Opera 10.50

Door redactie op 3 maart 2010 - 15:03

Opera 10.50 is vooral snel, sneller, snelst. De nieuwe JavaScript engine in Opera is 7 maal sneller dan de oude. Opera claimt hiermee ook weer de snelste browser te zijn die er bestaat. Verder biedt de Noorse browser nu ondersteuning voor Aero Glass, Aero Peek en Jump Lists in Windows 7.

Opvallend is verder dat de menubalk veranderd is in de Opera 'O'. Dit is voortaan het hoofdmenu van de browser. Ook zijn er veel verbeteringen aan css- en HTML5-ondersteuning en zijn er honderden Opera Widgets die als onafhankelijke programmaatjes op het bureaublad kunnen draaien.

Twee beveiligingslekken zijn in deze versie van Opera ook gedicht.

Ten slotte is privé browsen ook mogelijk in Opera 10.50 door privé-tabbladen of -vensters te openen. Lees hieronder alle verdere vernieuwingen, mocht u daar in geïnteresseerd zijn. Sommigen menen overigens dat Opera 10.50 te vroeg is uitgebracht en nog teveel fouten bevat.

De Windows-versie is al beschikbaar. Opera 10.50 voor Mac OS X en Linux volgen later.

Complete release notes:

New features

Better integration with the Windows operating system

  • Windows 7:
    • Aero Glass
    • Aero Peek
    • Jump Lists

Opera Carakan JavaScript engine

  • Reduced memory usage
  • Additional Carakan information (http://my.opera.com/...)

Opera "O" tab and menu

This increases vertical space in the Opera desktop window, and centralizes frequently used features and tools in one, convenient location. Optionally, the new Opera "O" tab and menu can be replaced with the traditional Opera Menu bar by clicking "Show Menu Bar" in the Opera "O" menu. This new Opera feature contains the following items.

  • Tabs and Windows ►
  • Page ►
  • Print ►
  • Bookmarks ►
  • History
  • Downloads
  • Opera Unite ►
  • Synchronize Opera ►
  • Widgets ►
  • Notes

CSS
Support is added for:
HTML5
Support is added for:

Opera Widgets for Desktop

Although they run outside the browser, Opera Widgets have been treated as entities inside the browser in many respects. The new Opera Widgets for Desktop ends this dependency on the browser and moves Opera Widgets to the next level: that of first-class applications. Above all, Opera Widgets for Desktop gives widgets the potential to replace some native applications on the computer.

Opera Widgets for Desktop includes the following features:
  • Support for View Modes through the W3C Widgets Module API:
  • A Widget menu located within the new Opera "O" menu, or optionally from the traditional Opera Menu toolbar. Menu options include:
    • Get Widgets
    • Manage Widgets... (opens the Widgets panel in the Opera user interface)
    • What are Opera Widgets?
  • Widget lifespans are separated from the Opera desktop browser.
  • Each widget runs in a separate process.
  • Integration with the operating system includes support for creating desktop and menu-based application shortcuts.
  • Widget control buttons organize important actions:
    • Move
    • Close
    • Minimize
    • Settings
  • Support is provided for different widget modes such as "Application" and "Widget".
  • A new widget installation/uninstallation process is supported:
    • Uninstallation from "Add/Remove Programs" in the Windows Control Panel
  • Notification pop-ups are supported.
  • Password manager is supported.
  • File I/O (Input/Output) access is supported.
  • The upgrading of installed widgets from current to new runtime is supported.
  • Improved support for Opera Dragonfly is provided.
    • Remote debugging is possible; configurable via a widget's context menu.

Download acceleration software compatibility
