Opera Software ASA

At Opera Software we believe it is of utmost importance that the Web and the Internet are available to all. Therefore, we have made Opera the most flexible and powerful Web browser available for anyone with special needs, whether this be for physical impairment, budget or location.

A number of features have been incorporated that are useful for people with different types of impairment:

• Full keyboard interface. Browse by using the keyboard. Single key navigation is also possible. You can also browse client-side ISMAPs.
• Zoom function. Zoom the contents - both text and graphics - to any level.
• Change the text size in Opera's toolbars and menus to improve readability.
• Some skins offer the opportunity to enable larger images for toolbars
• Remove menus, scrollbars, etc. Do not fill the screen with unnecessary items (if you use the keyboard and not the mouse).
• Use fullscreen mode to remove all toolbars, status bar and panels to allow more room for displaying Web pages.
• Invert marked links when selecting them via the keyboard: better screen-reader recognition.
• Toggle document and user settings: turn off fancy fonts and designer-dictated font sizes and settings.
• Select the font you want for the different HTML headers and text. Select any color.

For those who may not be able to obtain or afford the latest technology, Opera runs well on older computers.

If you are in an area with limited connection, Opera Turbo may be able to speed up your connection. For more information, see the Opera Turbo page.
