, posted Sun 25 Jan 11:23:
It doesn't refresh the page if you click the link to go back or if you use the toolbar Back button. However, it will refresh if you let the page time out and take you back to the topic list. This is intentional.
In the preferences (under "History and Cache") are the settings that tell the browser how often to check for newer versions of a page in cache. I think the default value is 1 hour or such.
When you submit your post and go back to the message list, Opera still has a cached version of the page without your post. So it uses that page instead to speed things up. This is part of the reason Opera is usually considered so fast. Loading a cached page is faster than downloading them, and (with the exception of bulletin boards) most pages don't change often enough to warrant downloading a new copy very often.
Anyway, you can change the values there for how often it checks for newer versions of the pages (documents), images, and "other." Change that to "always" and the browser will always look for a newer version of any page you go to. The checkbox here "Always check redirect" is why letting the page time out on its own gave you an updated page.
Opera has been my main browser for a while now. The only thing that doesn't work for me here are the format buttons (Bold, Italic, Spoiler, etc.); those I have to enter by hand.
[Edit: Or should, at least...]
