I would understand if Opera was having problems only MSN and its related pages. But Opera has problems rendering many other sites that work perfectly fine even in Mozilla. Perhaps instead of writing Swedish bork code, they should work on fixing what's wrong with their browser.

The problem here is not that opera is broken. The problem is that msn sees that you're using opera and sends you broken html. There's a big write up on it on opera's website. If you take the screwed web page out of opera's cache and stick it in IE or Mozilla it doesn't display properly there either. Also they modified the way opera identifies itself and magically they were no longer sent the broken web page by ms.

There are a few problems with opera but this case is clearly MS dicking around.
