Hmm, it's kind of crippled without cookie support, isn't it.  Not that I'm
a fan of the way so many sites mis-use cookies, but when they're used the

I hope it has cookie support.  Otherwise, there's somthing kinda scary
aboutthis COOKIES.DAT in my user directory!

Hey!  I see a cookies.dat file in my user directory too.  That's very
interesting.  Hmm.  Darn thing's binary (boo! hiss!) but anyway, as far as I
can tell, the cookies feature in Opera 3.60 is forgen borken.  If you know
how to make 'em work, I'd love to know (so I can tell users how if they ever
ask).  I've got "Enable Cookies" checked in the Advanced Preferences dialog
box, and yet it won't remember cookies on two different pages that Navigator
and Exploiter do just fine.


Seriously, I have Opera 3.60 and it works beautifully.  It has JavaScript with
an amazing feature:  You can have JavaScript on for all the cool onmouseover
stuff, but you can shut off window create so those stupid banners don't pop-up!

Excellent!


It's really worth getting.  Even if you don't have a problem with NS/IE's
Hard-drive clogging, slow loading or constant crashing.

But it doesn't do <DL></DL>.  :-(
