It's sort of ironic that web element were broken in Opera, as (apart from Safari 2.0), it's the most standards compliant browser out there. Opera 9.0 even passed Acid2, which makes it 100% W3C compliant. Only Safari and Konqueror (KHTML based rendering engines) also have that honor.

It's sad that IE's dominance created "new" web standards, which designers often conformed to. I know I used to do that, back in 2002-2004, when IE was the best out there. All my old pages looked like crap in non-IE browsers, as I'd use exotic CSS attributes only supported by IE. It made sense, though, as only 2% of my old site's visitors comprised non-IE users. Now, however, it's split 50% FF, 45% IE, and 5% other browsers.
