Any site worth its salt should work fine under Opera (having said that, I need to fix one of mine :-) ).

You've said this before, but unfortunately, I don't remember your explanation. If by "doesn't work", you're referring to DOM support, or proprietary tag support, I don't really give a damn about either one.

It works just fine, thanks (more specifically, it works better for me than IE 6.0, or Netscape 6.2).
