Embedding Opera in Cocoa

So, I'm writing a Cocoa application that needs to be able to display web content using Opera's rendering engine. This is for a feature, not because I'm an Opera fanboi (I'm not).

What happens is that the DIV is hidden but the space occupied by the DIV remains to appear in my web-page. <div style=" z-index:-1;height :380; width:760; position:relative; text-align:center" id="new-add"> <object id="banner-flash" classid="clsi...

Hello, I am not able to get the selection object's start and end offsets in Opera (v9.50) when the selection is collapsed (i.e. just point and click instead of highlighting text).

Opera and Custom cursor in CSS

Where I normally am verry proud of Opera for implementing everything CSS really correct it seems that implementing a custom cursor with the following line doesn't seem to work cursor:url("../pics/merge.gif"); The URL is correct since it works for regular background-image properties.

Opera/Mac: override cmd+S event?

Looks like Opera/Mac does not let you override an action when user pressed ⌘S (the default is, of course, save page). I found out my old script doesn’t work in it.

Sidebar not displaying properly in Opera

Even on my very best days I am absolutely dismal at tracking down browser display issues. In Opera, the left-hand sidebar on this page ( http://www.taysf.org/about ) is not displaying properly.
