Opera is commonly used in stand-alone kiosks because it fully supports the functionality to do
so out of the box. For more information, see www.opera.com/support/mastering/kiosk/.
Advertisements: As much as a sponsor probably wants their ad to appear in every
possible medium, a visitor will never see an ad intruding on their content and take
the time to reopen the page and click the link. The small chance of appeasing a
single patron is far outweighed by the certainty of annoying everyone else. (This is
especially relevant for animated ads, since only a single frame will even be captured.)
Navigation: While there might be value in reiterating what section the content is
from, there is zero value in printing a bunch of links that cannot be clicked. Hide all
navigation items??”even contextual pagination menus.
Inline links: The anchor text of links inside the body copy should obviously be
retained, but there is little point in styling them differently (which includes different
colors and underlines). If the content is written naturally, and links make sense
in context??”for instance, I saw a funny picture today, vs. click here to see the funny
picture??”users will never know what they are missing.
