don't think it does in any version of Opera or Safari - neither did htmlArea

Safari didn't support contenteditable until 1.3 and I think Opera still doesn't

[ray]

rev [763] contained changes to move towards a support for opera 9.10. Unfortunately they broke IE (throwing an error and mysteriously breaking the ContextMenu, see #972) while not even remotely enabling editing in Opera

I reverted changeset [736] in [764] because of the problems described above

[ray]

rev [765]: restored the state of [763] with a fix for #972 (checking in IE for document.designMode returns true, but that's wrong for our purposes).

I also changed the alert in checkSupportedBrowsers() so that it now says that Opera is not yet supported, which is fact!

changeset:969 and changeset:970 introduce initial support for Opera.

9.2 should work marginally. 9.5 (currently beta) works a bit better.

It has problems largely with selections, and maintaining the cursor.

But I think it should be workable. ImageManager works, as does Linker, at least with a cursory look. Have not looked at other plugins.

Hey, it's better than nothing! Can't let Safari get all the glory :)

I think we will close this ticket as Xinha now has (some) Opera support, and can treat specific issues with Opera as thier own tickets.
