Title: iOmnom_Mini now Opera 3.0 compatible!
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on June 22, 2011, 08:55:41 pm

Netham45's state of the art programming is finally going to make all of our Opera 3.0 users happy: they can now use the iOmnom_Mini version of OmnomIRC too!

No more need to upgrade to Opera 11.11, any of the latest browsers or to switch to something else than your dear old Pentium II, it is now possible to chat on Omnimaga from Opera versions as old as 3.0. This is a major step towards cross-compatibility. Hopefully, this means that eventually the Mini shoutbox will work completely in Internet Explorer as well!

Where can you get opera 3? Also, has anyone tried this on netscape?

I don't remember the URL unfortunately, but it was Old-Versions or something. You could even download old versions of IE there.

I think it was a different site, unless they redesigned it.

Bah that's new technology, download Mosaic 1.0.

This uses the simplest forums and javascript there is. Basically, if it supports the most basic of javascript (setTimeout and window.location) and even some of the earliest revisions of html, it will work.

Edit: Here's a 1.0 download for Mosaic.

Wow, then there is a chance it might work on Gossamer in the future!

I don't know Gossamer's javascript capabilities (if any), but it's feasible.

I know that there isn't any JavaScript support now, but that might come :)
