How to Enable JavaScript in Opera

Opera supports JavaScript, like other Web browsers do. JavaScript files are small programs that run on Web pages. They can load new content, send content to a Web server, create interactive menus and perform a variety of other functions. JavaScript is enabled by default on Opera, but it can be disabled. If you want to re-enable it, you can do so in the Advanced pane of Opera's Preferences window. Many websites won't work properly or at all without JavaScript enabled.
