After loading the above page in opera 11.64, the page displays blank. In order to view the page in opera, I have right click on the page, select view source (which I have configured to use gedit), then move the lines from <style> to </style, that occur just after the <body class=... line, to be before the </head> line. This seems to happen with most wiki pages, so I guess there is a template used to create new pages, that contains this error. style sections are supposed to be in the head section, not the body section.
(In reply to comment #0) > style sections are supposed to be in the head section, not the body section. Indeed. But a browser breaking on this is likely to misrender a lot of sites; actually, that's the first time I hear about a browser that strict. Does it break on http://www.mageia.org/en/downloads/ as well? As for fixing this very point (style in body), agreed. There's a pending update on the navbar that changes that. Or I can push a fix, but not before Wednesday evening.

Dave, would you be willing to file a report for this with Opera?

Bug DSK-364780 submitted to opera. http://www.mageia.org/en/downloads/ displays ok. Looking at the source, I'm very surprised, as it also has style after start of body. Perhaps the comment in between the body and style tags triggers the bug in opera. I mentioned in the bug report to opera that the site https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Cauldron would likely be fixed on Wednesday, and included a link to this bug report. I've gotten used to switching to firefox, for most wiki sites, and only today took the time to figure out what the problem was. It isn't only Mageia wiki sites I've had trouble with, and not all wiki pages on Mageia show the problem.

So it's very unlikely that this (style within body, however wrong it is a practice) is the source of the bug.
(In reply to comment #4) > So it's very unlikely that this (style within body, however wrong it is a > practice) is the source of the bug. Agreed. While moving the style into the head section does fix it for this particular page, figuring out exactly what combination of things triggers the bug, isn't going to be easy.
I also see the same problem, and the same fix works for https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Testing_procedure_for_libxml2
Due to Bug 4797, I had to start with a fresh opera profile, and am no longer seeing this problem. I'd been using the same profile since whatever version of opera was available with Mandrake 10.
