Fortunately I'm releasing a new version of our login tomorrow that fully supports Chrome so you'll be able to access it then without any further problems. However for the next 12 hours you'll have to use Safari :) Sorry about that – our browser detection system gets updates regularly and has blown away my changes to allow Chrome.

Before you can login to Xero… You will need to access Xero in a supported web browser. Please login to Xero using one of the following standard browsers." etc. Did you find any incompatibilities?

Reliability, performance and security are very important to us (which is why we'd like to see everyone on IE6 upgrade as soon as possible) and if a browser does not complete our test suite with a 100% pass mark then we block it by default. Opera is a great browser however in our testing of it so far we've come across some issues and so cannot say we support it. We do actually have some people using it (by masking the user agent) however we cannot guarantee the user experience we can with the likes of Safari or Firefox (the only reason we can support Chrome is because it's a WebKit-based browser and so is essentially a Safari clone). A lot of development and QA time is spent testing on all our supported browsers. We do actually have some testers that test with Opera - we're just not completely there yet. (IE8 is another to add to the mix: Beta 2 of IE8 has just been released and will require some work). @Peter: we only officially support browsers that have been completely signed off by our quality assurance team.

Xero is the only website I use that doesn't support Opera. It’s nice, but i’m still hanging out for Opera support.

Checked our project management software http://www.proworkflow.com as well and that worked all fine. So as far as I can see, nearly everything should work fine on it - It's just another browser - just a bit quicker.
