Description
In Opera (no need to mention version number; every Opera user uses the lastest version 😉 ), in the last day or so the edit textareas in branch 6 have been missing or misplaced, for wiki pages and trackers, that I've noticed so far. (Forum post forms are ok.) On the wiki edit page, the edit textarea is far down from the toolbar. Sometimes clicking on fullscreen edit and back again will bring it up to the toolbar. On the dev.t.o bug-submitting tracker form, the textareas for description and solution don't appear at all. I clicked on fullscreen editing and back, and a textarea appeared but it seems to be the solution textarea, not the one for the bug description. This affects the regular wiki editor; I didn't check yet about the wysiwyg editor.
Solution

If I switch Opera's "View > Style" to "User mode" (turns off CSS from the server) then the textareas are correctly positioned. This also seems to turn off javascript, so that could also be a factor. I'll look into the CSS aspects myself, but if anyone has any ideas or is using Opera and notices the problem, I hope this can be solved (it's a cool browser).
