How to I dump the new Yahoo for the original since the new one does not properly work with Opera?

Question

The webdesigners are using non-standard programming that is not supported by the WWW consortium and that only Internet Explorer understands (IE uses non-approved/non-standard coding.)

If this is not fixed, I will be finding another home page/startup page provider.

Answer 1

To switch back to the Classic version:

You should see a small link "Switch to original My Yahoo!" in the upper right hand corner of you My Yahoo page (there is also a small link at the very bottom of the page)

--Click on this link and a confirmation page will come up.

--Click on the "Switch Back" button and you should be back to your old (classic) My yahoo page.

If that doesn't work, try

http://cm.my.yahoo.com/switch

This works for most people (myself included and I switch back and forth all the time). If on your next visit, you are greeted with a promo page asking you if you wish to see your new beta page, click on the small "cancel" link and this should switch you back to your classic styled Yahoo page.

NOTE: As per a previous answerer, who claims to have called Yahoo support and was told: "The old page is permanently gone." I am still using it, so I know that is not the case for everyone (at least at this time), so it is possible that your old Classic version may be gone permanently.

Hope this helps
