I am just trying out Opera on Windows (www.opera.com) (Version 6.01 Build 1041 Platform Win32).
I can't edit a page.
For example,
http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/SPARC&action=edit
because the HTML seems to be bad. When I click the "Edit this page" link I see a page which has an editable text box with no text in, and all the text that is obviously supposed to be in the box has been rendered outside of the box.
I validated the edit page ( http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wikipedia.com%2Fwiki%2FSP... )
And got the following:
:: Line 22, column 6: :: :: </HEAD><BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> :: ^ :: :: Error: end tag for element "HEAD" which is not open; try removing the :: end tag or check for improper nesting of elements :: :: Line 22, column 31: :: :: </HEAD><BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> :: ^ :: :: Error: element "BODY" not allowed here; check which elements this :: element may be contained within
And much more. Indeed, looking at the HTML produced (just lines 18 - 24):
18: a.newlink { color: black; text-decoration: none; } 19: .newlinkedge { display: inline; } 20: //--></style> 21: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> 22: </HEAD><BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> 23: </BODY></HTML><table width="100%" class="topbar" cellspacing=0> 24: <tr><td valign=top height=1><font size="+3">SPARC</font><br>
It looks like the close tags for HEAD and BODY and HTML are in the wrong place, and that META is closed.
I guess that upsets opera enough to stop it rendering properly.
Any chance of a fix / some documentation so that I can do it myself?
