LJ often unusable: LJ's fault or Opera's?

[pne]

Today, LiveJournal often doesn't react to keypresses (such as page-down to scroll, 2 to go a tab to the right, or even Ctrl+W to close a tab); it seems to be more or less random (if I open ten tabs, three might be wonky and the other seven work).

I wonder whether that's due to the Opera update I installed this morning or whether it's just LiveJournal getting flakier and flakier.

If that kind of thing keeps up, it'll be more hassle than it's worth to check LiveJournal, which is kind of a pity; I had a good several years there, and a handful of the friends I made still update there regularly.

Can you disable JS in Opera? If LJ does anything that intercepts keypresses, it would have to be something JS-related.

Can you disable JS in Opera?

Yes, fairly easily in fact (it's one of a half-dozen options on the F12 quick menu).

Perhaps I'll try that if LJ is still acting up tomorrow.

Thanks for the reminder!
