Here you can enable the pipelining feature of Mozilla Firefox. Pipelining is an experimental function through
which the web browser sends multiple download requests to a web server over a single connection. This is not
supported by all web servers.
Opera
Title Bar
Here you can configure the settings for displaying the Opera title and logo.
Under Window title, enter in the Title field the text you want to appear in Opera's title bar. If you leave the field
empty and click on Accept or OK, the field is automatically filled with the default entry Opera.
In the Opera icon section, in place of the red "O" opera icon you can select a different icon from your hard disk.
The selected icon is then displayed in the Windows taskbar and in the Opera window.
If the icon file you select is valid, the icon is displayed immediately. If the icon file you select is invalid, the stand-
ard Opera icon is reinstated.
Operation
This is where you can make changes regarding the usage of Opera.
Under Autocomplete for web addresses you can specify that addresses will be automatically completed in the
address bar, i.e. Internet addresses appear automatically in the address bar after you have entered the first few
letters of the address. If, for example, you enter just one word only, then top-level domain suffixes like ".net" and
".com" are added to the end and the prefix "www." to the beginning. completes. Disabling this function can
speed up Opera a little.
Under Show source code you can specify whether, when Show source code is selected in the website context
menu, the internal editor in Opera should be used or another program, e.g. Windows editor (notepad.exe).
Performance
You can turn on fast navigation again here, which is set to automatic mode by default in Opera 9 onwards.
By selecting Automatic mode, you can specify that the web server setting should be taken into account when
you navigate through the browser history, which informs the browser whether a site can be loaded from the
cache using "Back" or "Forward" or whether the website should be downloaded anew each time. The latter is
necessary for certain shop pages to function correctly. However the server often demands that the page be
downloaded again from the web server when it is not necessary.
By selecting Compatibility mode you can specify that, regardless of how the server is set, the sites are never
downloaded from the browser cache when you navigate through the browser history, but are always down-
loaded anew from the website. This setting is generally not required and is not recommended for fast surfing.
By selecting Fast mode, you can specify that the websites already on your computer are always loaded from the
cache. This not only has the advantage that the back and forward functions are suddenly very fast again, but
also that a lower data volume needs to be downloaded over the Internet connection. Furthermore, entries you
have made into form fields are generally retained during navigation in a browser. For websites to function cor-
rectly with active site contents, it may however be necessary to manually refresh the websites regularly (e.g.
using F5).
