Dave,

This is just a follow up.

I once again revisited the issue with OPEN and the cookie login form, 
and for the life in me, NO MATTER what I tell it to do with CACHE 100% 
completely off, it still remembers it.  I recall now this was the reason 
why I wrote to the opera people.  It doesn't not honor a "No Cache" 
setup.   Try it.

1) Go to http://www.winserver.com
2) Click with "Web Browser" option
3) You get the cookie-based login form.
4) Login and it goes to the support page.
5) Click the Logout option
6) You get the "thank you" page. Click the Home Link
7) you can the public page again (like step 1)
8) Click with "Web Browser" option

and you get a blank page.

If you hit F5 to refresh, then Opera MAY display the form.

There is NOTHING you can do with the caching that will fix this in 
Opera.  I can't figure it out.

I know its a cache issue because I explored putting a TICK value in the 
/LOGIN  url so that is different each time.  Then it works because it 
doesn't have the same URL.

Let me try that again, in my default.wct, simple change

      /LOGIN?mode=html

to

      /LOGIN?mode=html&ticks=@SUB TICKS@

lets see,  YUP, works everytime.  The different TICKS= value tells opera 
its a different URL so obviously he doesn't have a CACHE for this, hence 
it requests it again

That is a caching problem in Opera, especially when you turn it to not 
use a CACHE.

In short, until this basic thing can be fixed in Opera, there is is 
really not else that matter about how it behaves.  Love to make it work, 
but I'm not going to pull my hair with Opera so broken like this.  I'm 
not the only way who says this.
