 Can you check what your User Agent is johnbillion?[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 {{{
 User agent: Opera/9.20 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
 is_NS4: 0
 is_gecko: 0
 is_winIE: 0
 is_opera: 1
 is_macIE: 0
 }}}

 It requires, NS4, Gecko, or winIE to be true for the bookmarklet to
 show.[[BR]]
 Just tried a stock standard Opera 9.10:[[BR]]

 {{{
 User Agent: Opera/9.10 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
 is_NS4: 0
 is_gecko: 0
 is_winIE: 0
 is_opera: 1
 is_macIE: 0
 }}}

 I find it hard to believe its working given those results.[[BR]]
 Looking through the vars.php file, none of the browser detection
 scripts(besides opera) will match a Stock standard Opera 9.10 or
 9.20(Nightly builds).[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Despite that, The Opera bookmarklet cannot support getting the currently
 selected text. which Opera 8+ supports(from memory). Other browsers are
 also getting locked out of using the bookmarklet even if they could
 support it. Which is the main reason behind my new bookmarklet which
 supports all browsers which support JS:
