Templates & Scroll Bars

When I go admin - Templates - Board  And await the template to load the scroll bars won't scroll
I left click hold the mouse button I keep getting Opera not responding

I never had any problems before with templates and the scroll bars
But for some reason I cannot scroll to view all the coding on the board template

I have closed opera a few times and logged in and gone to admin & templates and still had the problem
With the scroll bars not moving to view the code  when clicked to scroll and view the code the template

Just a update I downloaded Google Chrome
and had NO problems with the scroll bars once the board template loaded

It's just opera I seem to have the problem awaiting the page template to load
And trying to move/click on the scroll bar/s to scroll down and view the coding
Had no problems before as all the templates I have done have been done/edited using Opera
With google chrome I have no problem..

I was able to test this out on my forum with the same version of Opera. I was able to get it to scroll (after clicking inside the correct field, you did this right?) but it was choppy and slightly unhappy about doing so. I did a hard refresh on the page (Ctrl+F5) and everything started working again normally. However, there was a nice chunk of lag between clicking in the scroll-able field and scrolling actually taking place. Can you confirm that this is the case? (Click inside the scroll-able area and wait a few moments, then it should be scroll-able normally.) I'll still create a bug report because this seems slightly odd that you would have a delay.

Yes after a hard refresh I did manage to get the scroll bar working although it took awhile due to slight lag

It has always been slow (a slight lag)  a delay  - I think that's on how opera renders the page

Although it has always been slow had no problems using the scroll bars once the page has done loading
That is until Today I get the opera not responding if I click on the scroll bars
But after a hard refresh when on the correct field the scroll bars worked after a slight delay

Using google chrome all loads and scrolls much much quicker

This appears to be an Opera efficiency/compatibility issue of some sort. The lag is quite noticeable and should be easily (hopefully!) rectified. I made a bug report for this and I'll let you know what I hear back from the devs about this.
