| This worries me, does this mean I'll have to code for yet another
| browser?
|
| It looks as if Opera jumps the gun & tries to output the page
| before my external JS is loaded...
|
| I was under the assumption that Opera handled pages better then
| both IE & NS and, if a page worked in both IE & NS it would work in
| Opera as well.
|
| Did I assume wrong? Opera is still a small %, but I'd like my pages
| to show "nicely" in the big 3 *g*
|
| So can anyone who uses Opera take a look at this site
|
|         http://www.wyldeside.com/index2.html
|
| and tell me how badly it's messed up in Opera.
|
| Thanks, in advance,
|
|         Stephen.
