Is it possible to open new tabs in background in Opera Mobile? - General Questions and Answers

I'm using Opera Mobile on WM6.5
I want to open tabs in backgound like middle-click a link in IE/Firefox/Chrome. Is it possible to do that? I looked through Opera:config and find nothing related.
Any one can tell me is it possible?

is there anyone know how to do it?

Click-and-hold on the link then select "Open in a new tab"

thanks two-face, but what it will do is open in FOREGROUND not background. I have to switch back to the origin tab, which is quite annoying when trying to open a couple of links from a search result page.
I'm asking for a tweak or hack to make "Open in a new tab" work in background.

Since no working workaround is replied I'm presuming it is IMPOSSIBLE to open a new tab in background in Opera Mobile 9.5.

im interested to find out as well. its really annoying having to switch back to the old tab all the time

type "opera:config" in the url box without the "s. Its somewhere there, i forgot where specifically so take your time and look around a little. It says "maximum number of tabs allowed" or something, and mine's set to 8.

Just thought I should be specific. Type "opera:config" in the url box. Scroll down, tap on "User Prefs". Scroll down and look for Maximum Allowed Tabs. Change the number to your liking, scroll down somemore and tap save.

also interest in the anwser too

I am able to do that with Opera Mobile 9.7 and 10

Increase internet tabs when surfing?...

I was searching both diamond and Raphael forum and seem to find nothing about this tweak.
Anybody please help me out, 3 internet tabs is inadequate for me in many cases.
thanks,
I too, would like to know if its possible, I've checked through the registry and can't find anything that jumps out at me. I do recall in older version there being an XML or some other type of config file, maybe thats where we need to look. I'll try and find it this afternon
I am assuming that you are talking about Opera Mobile and I could find this by simply searching on google - http://my.opera.com/haavard/blog/20...-5-how-to-increase-the-maximum-number-of-tabs. If not then I am afraid guys I neither have the phone nor the software . Cheers.
In your Opera address bar type in : "opera:config" this opens the config file for Opera. Then under "User prefs" change "Maximum allowed tabs" to the number you want.
Hope this helps you.

mmm strange i have no option in Prefferences to change the max allowed tabs, cause my settings.html settings file don't have this option...
Anyway, open the \Windows\Opera9\opera.ini and change the line
Maximum Allowed Tabs=3 to desired value
Cheers

Thanks for the info! I thought this was something I'd have to live with and it didn't really occur to try and see if there was a way to increase the tab limit. Man, I love this forum!
cool! Didn't know this was possible.
I also love this forum!

don't want to start a new thread for such a simple question...I googled and everything, but how do I get rig of that Yandex search engine and have google as default engine instead?
I think when I first downloaded opera, it somehow decided that I am Russian and -ru.cab was downloaded and installed.
I removed that version and downloaded english version with my pc, but it somehow has the same previous settings (favs, and yandex search engine too)
I even deleted opera folder in registry after I removed opera, but it did not help

I don't now if that's usual in you country, but in mine, saying that someone has smoked [drugs, I suppose] is an insult. I ask to the moderator to remind you that this is a forum, when people with doubts and questions needs useful answers, not stupid esnob answers. If you like insult people go to a football stadium and, please, leave this forum right now!
On the other hand, I'm sorry but Flash doesn't work on Opera 10 as is, as a lot of users are saying in a lot of forums. If you have the key to activate it (by changing preferences, register keys, or any third app,) you should share this information with the other instead of insult them....
@Pere
Just maybe if you read the thread from the beginning you would of seen the second post in this thread by souljaboy
"u gotta turn it on in operas menu tho , and it switches itself off sometimes for me"
Although perhaps he should of explained for you how to do it, well it's really simple by default it's off so go to Opera then choose Settings, then Advanced and click Plug-ins to ON. You now have the Flash enabled in Opera Mobile 10 personally mine has never turned itself off although reading through the posts some seem to of had this problem. So if it stops working just check Plug-ins is On hope that helps and you now see and have Flash working in Opera Mobile 10.

Thank you Marc, I already had enabled Plug-ins ON before the souljaboy's advice, with no success. I don't know why, but I can't see flash on my device with the Opera 10 final (With IE I can). Perhaps I have any software conflict. I'll try to install it after a Hard Reset

internetbrowser only showing mobile versions

Hello dear people
i just got my HTC sensation and im getting a really nasty problem:
my phone shows only internetpages in mobile view and even i chance settings not to show up mobile view, it does it though!!
has anybody the same Problem oder can anybody help me out with this issue?
Help is greatly appreciated!
While I am still using my Nexus One, as the release of the sim-free Sensation is almost a full month in the future - and therefore can't say if there is a settings toggle that would solve your problem:
Dolphin HD is a great alternative to the default browser, it allows for changing the user agent which will allow you to view all sites in default desktop-view: https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser&feature=search_result
Most mobile versions of popular websites really are rubbish, and many of them miss the basic functionality of efficiently switching to their sites desktop view.

Well thanks for this answer, tried the dolphin browser and surprisingly it works on this browser
Think i gonna use this browser in future so problem is basically solved.
Now i got a new problem: all wallpaper which i tried to use wont scroll on the home screen not even those wallpapers which are saved on the phone on standard... can anybody help me out? On my old desire, all wallpapers are scrolling!
some sites force mobile sites automatically no matter what. look on the page for a link to view full site. maybe that'll help?
On some sites there are links for the full site indeed but i dont want to always cklick these links first. On my old desire all pages are displayed in desktop view wenn i disable the mobile view in the browser settings. On my sensation it always shows all page in mobile view whatever i set the option to. But with dolphin browser it works and by the way im starting to like this browser more then the standard one
To my second problem, can anybody tell me why wallpapers wont scroll one the home menu on sensation?

Try typing the following in the browser: about:debug
Then settings-> UAstring -> choose desktop.
Thats it.

From my experience even if you uncheck mobile in browser settings some sites still come up as mobile. My solutions to this is I type the full web address of the site I want to visit. As In www.wisn.com. Every since I started typing the full web address into the stock browser all sites come up as the full website. When I found this out I uninstalled dolphin. Hopes this helps.
Edit:
Besides the full web address typing, I found some decent info while searching threw Google and posted a thread in general. It might help or it might not. But its something you might want to check out and give it a shot.

This actually doesn't do anything unless you select the option for Manual UA string and enter the code manually, but either way, it reverts on reboot.

[Q] Turn off mobile websites?

I can't seem to figure out how to turn off mobile websites. I can't stand it I need full websites.
Also is there a way to put an actual fm radio on here so it doesn't use data?

Look up how to change your user agent for the web thing.
Short answer for the FM radio is no.
Sorry.

Open your browser and type in about:debug and hit go.
Then hit the menu button and select "settings".
Scroll down to the bottom where it says "User Agent" and tap that, selecting Android, Desktop, or iPhone.
Still wont work for some websites. Check trigger errors in the debug output for more information.

I may try that but I downloaded opera and set it as default and I actually like it. so may just stick with it.
Skyfire browser also gives you the option to switch between Android (mobile websites) and Desktop (full websites).

Most sites also give you the option to switch to full... You'll usually find that at the bottom.

thats how i usually do it, some sites have that option at the bottom.
i thought i remember somewhere an app maybe that will allow the websites to be viewed in full, but cant remember where.
I know when i tether my laptop to my cell, i use an app that changes from full into mobile view, so it dont use so much data.
good luck.

Depends on the browser. Opera, Dolphin HD browser and Skyfire allow agent switching. On my Opera, with the agent set to Desktop everything is like my laptop............I hate sites in mobile mode !! I used all the above browsers and the latest Opera has stuck with me. Dolphin is also great, but Skyfire is a little iffy for my tastes. Haven't used Firefox too much.
My 2 cents.
EDIT : Oh yeah, I remember why i like Opera..........Adobe Flash rendering in Opera is very good..........I watch entire live sports events with no hiccups.
