Opera 9 rendering of GeSHi issues

Post by RobertGonzalez »

Is it just me, or does Opera totally choke on the syntax highlighter this board uses for PHP and the rest of the syntax=... family?

IE and FF render correctly, but Opera does not apply the border or syntax highlighting. What's up with that?

Umm, I think its just you. I'm using Opera 9.01-8533, and it shows both the syntax highlighting, and the border.

Haha, funny. Though it could be. All I know is the styles for the syntax highlighting in Opera don't render. I'll put a picture up in just a minute if I can.

EDIT | Here is some code to test it out. I should also say that I am using the subSilver template. I believe it works fine in Sherbet.

Code: Select all

<?php
// This is highlighted PHP code
$this_highlighter = false;

if (!$this_highlighter)
{
    echo 'What the hell is going on here?!?!?!';
}
?>

I can't provide any insights as I've NEVER used opera. but I do like how one of the buttons was missing...that's kind of a nice touch.

I swear that stupid @$$ proxy server is going to be the end of me. In Opera 8 at home, it renders exactly as it expected. I think I am going to install Opera 9 just to test it out and see.

your proxy wouldn't have anything to do with the way your browser renders html 8O

as long as your browser is getting all of the code, it is it's job to deal with it appropriately.

His proxy is jacked, if it's blocking 1 of the stylesheets that could cause it. Mebbe an @import or something.

there are no imports on the geshi stylesheet...and why would a proxy block the download of a stylesheet?

Dude, my proxy has been doing some stupid crap the last few days. In Sherbet, the other day, it stopped rendering all of the styles. I should have screen shotted it so you could see what I was talking about. Half the images in Opera 9 at work don't load (as you can see in the screen shot I put up earlier). My proxy is also shuffling IPs so I am getting logged out of DevNet every now and again.

This thing is killing me. I'm ready to quite my job and become a full-time devnet surfer.

if it were a MS proxy and not allowing the NTLM authentication then (in theory) it shouldn't let you out at all. If it does let you out and you are able to fetch the html / styles / js etc from the server, then it's your browser's responsibility to put it all together correctly (from cached info saved locally).

I guess I won't rule out the proxy entirely because I've heard of stranger things happening, but I'd lean more towards a bad Opera install or something to that effect.

I might have to uninstall and reinstall. I'll try tomorrow. I updated to 9 from 8, and installed over the old with the new. Maybe that s the problem.

EDIT | It'll have to wait until Thursday. I get to help with extracation training tomorrow. Let the jaws of life and saw cutting commence!
