Yes - my most frequent problems are with the smaller
purchasing sites. I can't think of one offhand to give as
an example but I know it happens on a too frequent basis (I
do a lot of online ordering).

Is there an add-on for Opera so that I can right click and
show this site in Opera the way I do with IE - in other
words, a right click "view this page in Opera"?

TIA
