Re: Associate Opera Mobile with .url Favorites

Quickmenu really makes the whole favorites experience much nicer. As good as Opera is in most regards, its bookmark handling is terrible. Bad interface, clunky storage, can't sync -- the whole bit is just bad.

Your method didn't work for me (perhaps it was something specific to your rom?). There are a few favorites stored in that registry entry, but the rest are stored in files in \Windows\Favorites. And those files aren't just URLs, but INI files, so changing the url handler to be Opera leads to opera trying to open an ini file, getting confused, and crapping out. If you've found some way around that that doesn't involve mortscript, I'll be thrilled -- I always prefer a more elegant solution.

I've just spent some time banging on cabwiz (which is a really unintuitive program), so I've got a cab installer that seems to work. I'm updating the first post now.
