Press Page Down and Page Up to switch slides
You can search the Web directly from Opera's user interface, without going to search pages.
Search setup
In the Search preferences, select your favorite search engine from the list to make it your default choice on the Address bar of new pages. Note that the search field has a drop-down menu from which you can switch to other search engines on the fly.
You can also specify a preferred number of hits on each page of search results, but note that some search engines may not adhere to your choice.
Searching
There are several ways to search the Web through Opera's user interface:
- Enter your search phrase in a search field on the Start bar or the Address bar (click the triangle to choose search engine).
- In the address field, enter a search keyword (see list in Preferences) followed by your search phrase, for example "g Opera" to search for Opera using Google
- Create a new bookmark and enter "g Opera" as Web address to save the search as a bookmark
Tip: When pressing Ctrl+F, you normally launch the "Find in page" dialog. Enable "inline find in page" to search from a toolbar search field instead.
