No not a case for the MIB, but whenever I view a page for the first time in the forum the main body renders over the top banner and navigation bar.
If I return to to a page using the back/forward buttons it then renders correctly.
I am using Opera 9.5.

Just installed Opera 9.50 and noticed it too. I found pressing ctrl and moving the mouse wheel so the zoom is activated sorted it out. It is also rectified by adjusting the zoom in the bottom right of the browser.

Re: Weird Bug in forum?

With respect, sounds like a weird bug in Opera. Looks fine in 9.5 on the PC here.

Hence the question mark in my post title Smile
The problem only seems to occur in the forum(Drunk.
Other parts of the site are fine.

Opera 9.50 also doesn't display the option bar with the reply/quote options correctly.
Perhaps my settings are off?

It would be useful to have a recommended setting for the site for each browser, as while Firefox 3 (used for this post) is nice it is a PIA to set up all the add-ons.

This seems to be a problem with javascript as playing with the settings it stops happening if you turn it off.

I assume this is a potential problem with opera as all aspects of the site work fine on other browsers.

Turning off Javascript solved the problem until I logged in to reply, at which point the problem re-occured.
Opening the Java console shows a lot of CSS errors, which is no help as I don't know CSS.

Does it in IE too.

You see the emoticons from the options page and then they disappear. Purely cosmetic though.
