Apolyton and Opera problems...again =\ Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

I'm currently experiencing the same problem I experienced quite some time ago with Opera.

The page loads up to 16/17% and then won't load further. I'm only experiencing this with Apolyton =\

I have this problem with the newest versions of Opera, 6.05 for Windows and 6.03 for Linux (I'm currently viewing Apolyton with Galeon and it works fine under IE in Windows as well).

Was something changed at Apolyton what could have caused this, and are other Opera users experiencing it as well?

Suffering from ads?

I'm getting it too (using Mozilla now). It seems that the pages are over a megabyte in size, at least the progress bar says '1,1 megabytes transferred'. At that point I decided I'd better switch browsers for a while. My version is the newest one for Windows, 6.05.

OK, somehow it's working fine again now.

Is it working again for you as well, Kass and Vet?

It's working. I had the reloading thingy too, except that when I stopped it didn't show me anything from the page.

But it's gone, at least for now.

I have the same problem as Zopski in Opera 6.04. Although I took the screenshot at 1.32 minutes I could have taken it an hour later with the same result. The page stops loading at around 75-80 kB.

hmm after some browing i got what Hueij shows, but the page HAS loaded. between the fact that everything on the page appears ok, the "page loading time" has been calculated which means that for at least a part of Opera the page has fully loaded.

Opera is cool.......after 2 weeks or so if you have to use IE to view a site you will miss the mouse gestures like crazy.

I did have problems with 6.01 and apolyton.......but then they went away, never to return.

I don't know what features Mozilla has these days, but I have become very used to having 10 sites or so open at the exact page I want to start browsing from each day.

Got spare money?

If you know how much pain you give to website builders, for sure if those websites are complex, like ie. Apolyton, than you don't use other browsers than MSIE 5.5 or higher.

And pherhaps browser X is better, but as long as people keep using different browsers with different standards, things will never be better, and you'll confuse website builders more, and you'll be a stay in the way for new improvements.

Jeez, what a load of crap. There are no different standards, there is just the one. Now if Micros**t would actually keep itself to them everything would be dandy.

Just design your sites in Opera and they will work in every browser...

And what new improvements are you talking about? The blink or the marquee tag?

you obviously are not a designer of complex websites.
Ever heard of hiding / showing divisions, redirection, replacing context, to just name a few.

Why should the biggest browser change so the smallest one works with it? If Opera wants to survive it should change into MS direction.

MS = the standard, about 90% of the people uses MSIE. It's BS to keep on claiming that MS is not living up to the standard. They create the standard. Live with it. That's the way it is.
