When you add your city, after it shows up in the box, select it (single click), and then "close" the tray with the little up arrow at the bottom. When the try closes, the widget will reload with your city.

I was also wondering if someone could tell what it means that Opera does not support add-ons like FireFox does. I asked a software company if they had a version of there product for Opera and that's what they said or something like that.
Thanks

Loaded up Ubuntu on a spare machine, downloaded Opera, and my favorite widget as my first order of Ubuntu-business.
However, when I open the widget on this machine, I get a large gray box on the screen just underneat the widget itself, as if there is a transparency issue. Has anyone else seen this?

Will there be a solution sometime or is it too difficult?
Thanks.

The widget cache is constantly growing and gets never deleted. With every start of the widget/browser a new satelite image is written to cache. If you restart Opera a lot the cache is getting huge! I know of a user who had 30(!)MB in the cache directory of your widget.
Is there something you can do about it?
