Sometimes I cannot select a non-clickable line of text, even when it
begins with http:// to jump to the adress using the hotclick context
menu 'GotoUrl'.
It is just greyed out.
8 Beta only, worked fine with 7.x

Oh, I customized this menu.ini, as I did in 7.x in order to open a new
page,when selecting GotoURL.

Item, 67394= Copy & New page & Paste and go

Could it be this?

I think the reason could be an empty clipboard. Opera first checks if al=
l
commands can be executed. If there is no clipboard content, Opera does n=
ot
execute the whole command combo, becaus of the not working "Paste an go"=
,
although (we both know that) it would be possible.
The problem is that you (and Opera) can never be sure in which order the=

commands will be executed.
I have another solution for the task:
Item, "Go to URL in new page" =3D Go to page, "%t" & duplicate page & Cy=
cle =

to next page
This only works if enable "Reuse existing page" (which you have).

If you disable "Reuse existing page" you don't need that command at all,=

because then Opera will allways open new pages for such things.

Or keep 'reuse' on, and remember to hold Shift while clicking 'Go to URL'.
Or Ctrl+Shift to open in the background.

Thank you Rijk and Gunnar,

Indeed, I didn't know that 'Reuse existing page disabled'
concerned the context menu too...
That did the trick with the original Hotclick_Menu line.

thanks, BB
