Opera Mini has some special commands that you enter in the address bar like a URL but without the "http://". Many of them return information that's probably only of interest to Opera's developers but a couple are actually very useful.
My favorite is config: which opens Opera Mini's Power User Settings page where you can tweak many browser settings like the timeout and whether the browser should make phone numbers clickable. See my post Opera Mini's Hidden Power User Menu for more information.
Web developers will appreciate server:source which displays the source code of the current page.
Here's a full list of all the hidden Opera Minicommands that I've discovered. I've tested these in Opera Mini 4.3 and 6 and I believe that (except as noted) they should work in all Opera Mini versions since 4.0.
config: - Open the the Power User Settings menu
server:source - Display the current page's source code
opera:cache - displays the size and URL of cached pages and images
about: - displays information about the Opera Mini server
debug: - Displays a page listing many Opera mini server and client properties. The "Host:" field tells you which Opera Mini server you are currently connected to.
The first letter of the host is supposed to indicate which country the server is in. I believe that "r" hosts like "r02-12" are in the US. as I'm in the US and I'm usually connected to "r" hosts. I've also seen or heard of "t", "z" and "v" hosts. Anyone seen others or know where any of them are?
The following commands duplicate Opera Mini menu functions.
feed:list - Go to the Feeds page
opera:about - Displays copyright and license information for third party software used in the browser
server:reset - clears all cookies
server:refresh - refreshes the current page
o:A - goes to the start page (Opera Mini 4.n only)
o:Z - goes to your bookmarks (Opera Mini 4.n only)
I suspect that there are more of these hidden commands. If you've discovered others that are currently working, please lets all know in a comment.

opera directory: C:\Program Files\Opera Mini\saved\ or if you install it on memory card, it's D:\ and it's file:///directory/file, NOT files:// (with two slashes). your right, the trick only works for version 5/6. unfortunately opera mini for windows mobile has been discontinued
javascript:alert(c=0)
javascript:var n=document.firstChild;while(n && n.nodeType!=Node.ELEMENT_NODE) n=n.nextSibling;document.write('' + n.outerHTML);
have you ever seen about opera handler? I think Opera Labs is the best one. http://ykhandler.com for more info
how can we make opera mini support qwerty (like
bolt browser does.).
any method will do..
opera is the best browser otherwise.
i have surfed around a lot, no output so far.
help me sir, i wil be thankfull.
File a bug report at http://mini.bugs.opera.com/ and post the issue on the Opera Mini Forum at http://my.opera.com/community/forums/forum.dml?id=111
In your bug report and forum post be sure to include the make and model of your phone and a concise description of exactly what doesn't work when you use the QWERTY keyboard to do inline mode editing.
On non touch phones highlight the Speed Dial you want to change and either press the "1" key or do a long press on the center Dpad button and choose Edit from the menu that appears.
A menu will app
another tip:
you can access local files by typing files://your-dir/your-file but make sure your-dir lives in opera directory!
What do you mean by "opera directory" ?
I tried many ways and i didn't get the files protocol to work, I have tried in versions 5, 6, and 7.1
Update Facebook Status via Opera Mini (not via Mobile Web)
Log-in first to your mobile facebook account:
http://m.facebook.com
After that type in address bar:
share:facebook
You will now be prompt to post your status via Opera Mini.
=)
Incidentally I have also written a post on this topic some time back at DiGi-PASSION OPERA MINI 4 SECRET URLs/CODES". I have written all the codes you described (and many more) except the server:source and server:refresh. Thanks for adding these to my knowledge.
The others either return "Error reading from server" or a blank screen in the Java versions of 4.3 and 6 and the Android version of 6. Do all the codes you listed still work for you and on which platforms?
