(Currently available only for Windows machines, both 3.X and 95/NT.) It has the ability to enter your information, including your name, address, phone number, etc., into the browser, and then quickly and easily paste that into any text field form. The way I do it is with a right-click and then a select, but I imagine there are probably keyboard shortcuts too, knowing how Opera is put together. (Lots of keyboard commands.) -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@hwg.org> Vice President, Marketing and Outreach, HTML Writers Guild http://www.hwg.org Education & Outreach working group member, Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI/
