I'm guessing he meant use the Opera forums - *my.opera.com/community/forums/

its called autocomplete feature introduced by IE ... Opera was never in its favour as it poses some serious security threats... look here BBC story
But due to popular demand, Opera will introduce this feature in Opera 9.

its actually not a beta, but technical Preview 1

autocomplete will be introduced in Opera 9 final, only some part is implimented in TP1 (as a part of webforms)
