If I remember correctly, placing the marker into such an input box has to
be done with client side javascript. It is possible that the script used is
IE/FF-specific, and thus does not work with Opera.

Or perhaps the script has been made browser-specific, like:

IF "IE" THEN DO IT THE MS-WAY
ELSE IF "Netscape" THEN DO IT THE NS-WAY;
/* Oops, forgot to take care of other browsers with */
/* ELSE DO IT RIGHT;  */

I haven't tried to check it out, but these are theoretically possible
reasons for that behaviour.

Is the marker lacking when you have checked that javascript is on, and
testing pretending to be Netscape or Internet Explorer?
