Opera Browser can't render XForms

[d_segato]

It's only me or Alfresco WCM doesn't work on Opera Browser?
I get this error after clicking "next" on the "company-footer" (example xsd) webform creation:

JavaScript

Opera has modified the JavaScript on localhost (legacy TinyMCE enter fix + link button fix). See browser.js for details

and the Forms is not loaded at all

(and there are many CSS error/warning in all pages)

Hi

We don't officially support the Opera browser, nor do any of the developers at Alfresco use it (or even have it installed that I know of) to pick up on such problems. Unfortunately, it's market share is so small that we can't realistically afford the effort to fix its particular quirks.

Thanks,
Mike

I know you don't support other browser then Firefox and IE but that's not an excuse for not-standard code in your web application

you use a lot of client-side javascript that I think you shouldn't use

anyway, thanks for the reply

[mikeh]

That's probably very true of the code used in the Alfresco Explorer (JSF) client, however the code is Share is much cleaner as I've started a small crusade to clean up this area!  :wink:

If you can see particular problems that need fixing for Opera, we'd gladly accept your code contributions for which you'd get full credit.

Thanks,
Mike
