toolbar development questions
Hi
I'm developing a toolbar for opera. I'm not sure widgets is the way to go, would appreciate if someone could point me to the right direction.
The toolbar should be installed as a regular extension (as in firefox).
Main functionality would be search box and a music player.
Is it possible to use widgets for this?
Thanks in advance.

You can build toolbars/menus for Opera (e.g. our debug menu:
http://dragonfly.opera.com/app/debugmenu/DebugMenu.ini), but there is no extension mechanism.

It seems like widgets is the way to go. I recommend having a look at our widgets SDK:
