Opera Browser Refresh question

Post by Johnny Roberts »

How do you get Opera to come up with updated sites in tabbed browsing? It is annoying to have to manually refresh multiple tabs each time you crank up Opera. Firefox handles this easily.

No problem here. If the browser is not refreshing, try:

- Preferences > Advanced > History
- Select "Always" for Check Documents/Check Images
- Select "Empty on exit" for the Disk Cache

You may not need all these, depending on which behavior you're describing. "...updated sites in tabbed browsing" has several meanings in Opera.

Thank you, Jeff. Your recommendations fixed my problem.

Example of the earlier behavior: I fired up Opera and clicked on CNN.com; the page (probably from the cache) showed news as of December 25. I applied your fixes, restarted Opera, clicked on CNN.com. The latest news appeared without a manual refresh.

Thanks again.
