Could it be a cache issue? Are you properly clearing Opera's cache? Are you sure that all of your image paths are correct? Do you or your ISP use a proxy that might be caching these images?

I suspect Opera is just being "smart" enough to realize that since the images aren't visible they don't "need" to be downloaded. This is actually a very logical thing when you think about it.

I read that it is optional for a UA to download images with, or inside any element with, the setting of display: none; - Opera seemingly have taken the option not to. You can achieve preloading via other CSS methods if you still need to, e.g absolutely position that hidden div "off left" : .hidden {
position: absolute;
left: -9999px;
} or depending on your Gallery application you might be able to position the images where they're supposed to be and use z-index to toggle their display? (you can only use z-index on a relatively or absolutely positioned element)

You should use z-index. Content is not supposed to be loaded when inside of any element set to display: none; so you've at least approached it half correctly initially (which is more then I can say for myself most of the time ;)). div.body {
z-index: 1;
}
div.hidden {
z-index: 0;
}

You will have to position your body div of course. - John
