Improve compatibility of Opera S60

Opera 8.65 for Symbian has a good compatibility, allowing users to browse most web sites with no major problems.But, still, there're a few sites you can't browse properly even with javascript enabled.A very common example is Google's Orkut page: you can login normally either from Orkut home page by using Opera with fit to screen™ disabled, or by going to Alberto Bilheteria's Orkut frame and login from there.
After having logged in, you'll see many links don't work, like "view friends", "search" or "submit" (used to post messages).
As you should be already thinking, Alberto Bilheteria has found the workaround for this situation, that you can use until a new release of Opera appears to fix this problem.With this trick by Alberto Bilheteria, you can click on most links that wouldn't work normally.

Go to some page where links don't work.Here Alberto Bilheteria will try to send a scrap in Orkut as an example.

Locate the link you have problems with:

Activate "Find in page" feature, and write a part of the word that's in the link you want to click.Make sure the link gets highlighted:

If the word you are writting appears in some other place through the page, it might be highlighted instead the link.In this case, use "Find next" until the link is highlighted

Alberto Bilheteria
Press Stop to close "Find in page" dialog, and press center key to go to the link
