I think the WP's default template has some padding issues in Opera.

I don't thing that many people use opera. But still for those who do. The problem with so many different browser types is that everything comes up looking different. No one can really easly please everyone. What i recomend is that if most of your visitors use opera then change the theme to suit opera otherwise theres not much you can really do.

well its not a problem with opera as such, coz opera has one of the best CSS support around. Much better than IE atleast. And it follows some rulez strictly. So perhaps something is there in the CSS file that is interfaring with the standards.
And since it is THE default theme of WP, i had expect the developers to make it look perfect in atleast the current generation of browsers.
I don't use the default template, I don't like how the header is. Why not make up a new .CSS template, like I did and look at it in Opera? Mine looks fine in all of the browsers. :)
Adding padding:0; to the body element in the stylesheet should do the trick. For making sure it can't hurt to add top:0; and left:0; as well.
I hope WP wouldn't just dismiss certain browser because of usage, but rather work toward meeting standards and then seeing what can be done for browsers that don't support those standards. Why do we cater to MS' every whim? They should cater to us. We pay them after-all.

My blog is practically running on the bluerobot. need to make it a customized personal template. Lazy me. :|
Ben de Groot: I've added the padding: 0 on body as you suggested, and the new wp-layout.css has been commited to CVS.
Sushubh (or any other Opera users): Let us know if this change improves things in Opera.
since i m not the techie type, i will have to wait for the final version to see that. till then i will try to fix that on my own local installation if padding:0 does any good to it. :) thanks...
man, i got the new css file (charleen). i love it even more than the default template...
