Opera - High contrast on certain tabs

This is how in the Opera web browser you can have high contrast on some tabs and normal contrast on others. This is usefull - for me at least - to have white text on black on very light websites while still viewing other sites as normal.

To do this, you need the Appearance > Buttons > Browser view > User Mode button on the toolbar. Then:
  • Click the arrow next to this button and choose Manage Modes...,
  • Give both modes the same settings, but uncheck My style sheet for one of them,
  • In the mode that has the My style sheet setting, you can set the High Contrast option, in the other one you can't; so on a page in this mode set this option.
Now you can easily toggle between normal and high contrast by switching between author and user mode. This mode can be set per tab, so this way you can have normal and high contrast tabs in the same browser window.
