Opera support for polygons

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use Opera browser to open a Geoxml map containing polygons
2. For instance (based on static gml or xml): 
    (1) http://www.dyasdesigns.com/geoxml/gmlusa.htm
    (2) http://www.stratix.com/ftth/geovoorbeeld.php
3. Observe issues in polygon behaviour: Appearance, mouseover events,
onclick events

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

In case (1) polygons seem to be drawn at first, but in Opera browser they
'dissapear' from the view. Neverthelees although they are not visible, they
are clickable...

In case (2) polygons are properly visible, but in Opera browser there are
problems with mouseOver and onClick events. There seems to be an offset in
the coordinates that are selected.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

-Operating system: Windows XP SP3
-Browser: Opera 9.64
-Geoxml: Problems were found to persist in both recent versions: April15
and May15

As was mentioned earlier by 'carlenek' in the comments for the issue on Internet
explorer support, similar issues are present for IE8.

For IE8 the problem seems to be isolated to onclick events for polygons. No
information balloons or the wrong information balloons pop-up.

The IE8 issue can off course be resolved by making IE8 render the page as IE7, 
by
adding the following meta tag in the document head:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7">

However, I hope this will be only a temporary solution...

Opera support in the API itself may be causing limits... (similar to IE) but I 
will look in to it.

Haha, I'm such a douche... For other people's issues I check whether they exist 
with
GGeoxml as well, but not for myself. You are correct, it seems that it's an API 
issue...

I think I will add your comment about the emulation flag on the Wiki... atleast 
temporarily.
