    Hello Nat.

    I don't think this will be much help to you, but I recently found a world clock feature on my Desktop Sidebar program. You can add the countries you want, and they show up if you click on a big clock on the screen.

    But as for Opera, I believe you could try searching for widgets? I'm not too familiar with the browser, but I think that is what Opera uses as "extensions"

    I really like ZoneTick.. it's not free, but cheap when you consider it's for two computers. Before that I used Symm Time, which is free but isn't a tray clock replacement.

    I've always liked this one Nat - it's small, easily configured for 4 time zones and free.

    World Time Clock

    It's fourth down on the list.

    hi, Nat. i made this for you. so all you have to do is put the name of the place you want the time for in Opera's search box, then select "World Time Search" from the drop-down.

    all you have to do is copy the stuff below and paste it into your search.ini file
    WINDOWS\Program Files\Opera\search.ini

    there should be other "search engines" already there, just check the Search Engine number is correct, i've put 33 because my Opera in Windows has 32 already, it might be wrong though because i have an old copy of Opera. i hope it works (it does with Ubuntu :ninja: :D )

    [Search Engine 33]
    Name=Nat's World Time
    URL=http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/results.html?query=%s
    Key=time
    Encoding=utf-8
    Is post=0
    Has endseparator=0
    Search Type=0
    VerbText=17063
    Position=-1
    Nameid=0

    BTW you can also do the search in the address bar :D like this vvv just write "time" before the place name

    Thanks Everyone !! ~what to choose, what to choose~ o_O

    :D Ha! They are all nice.....but I think I go with eyes-open's suggestion...it's very light, small..etc.

    Cochise: Nice site. :)

    sosaiso: The widgets feature is only available in Opera Beta. Sooo...I have to wait. Thanks for replying ! :)

    Dear iceni...

    I really appreciate all your efforts you've done for me.....BUT ~
    aren't those widgets ONLY for Opera 9 Beta ??!?? (which I dont have) ---
    and YAHOO! has this program to dl, that offers them.

    Had it once...uninstalled.
    I think it somehow slowed down my puter to a crawl. :doubt:

    PLUS: It seemed to be quite buggy when I had it. The widgets wouldn't stay the way I had configured them, etc...etc...

    those widgets have nothing to do with opera. the company - konfabulator was bought out by Yahoo about year ago, i tried it then and used about 20 different widgets with no slow downs at all. anyway, since then there have been new releases and the widgets have improved.

    lol, it makes no difference if you use them to me, if they slow down your computer i'm sure it's really easy to get rid of everything. the widgets don't get installed to your computer so it should be OK to try out.
