Features I like: Reload from cache
6 May 2005 00:07Opera has a very nice feature, which enable me to edit any webpage I’m browsing, without accessing the source files on the server. Of course, it’s only locally on my own PC - but that’s often just what I need. I just view the source (Ctrl F3), edit it, save it, and reload it from the cache (Tools -> Advanced -> Reload from cache)
When can this be useful? Well - when someone have a problem with some pages, I can just visit those pages and edit them locally, and see if it works. Much easier than download everything and set up a copy of the site locally to test, no? Or I may find a funny video clip I’d like to save on my harddisk, but the author of the pages have “forgot” to place a download link on the page to make it easy for me. No problem - I make that link myself. And then there are pages that just don’t work all that well - there may be some faulty scripts or whatever. Edit, save and reload - and the page shows itself from a better side.
It’s not the function I use most, but it has been very useful when needed.

el archivo opera6.ini. Más información sobre el tema en Site-specific preferences in Opera 9. Se incluye un editor nativo de código fuente. No tiene coloreado de sintaxis como el de Firefox pero, al ser un editor, al combinarlo con la opción de Reload from cache se vuelve muy interesante. Al buscar una palabra en una página, todas las ocurrencias son remarcadas. En documentos muy grandes, esta función me pareció un tanto inestable. Soporte para algunos selectores de CSS3
