Description
The Switch to Item view is not working with Opera. I allso checked on plone.org. The problem lies in navigation_tree_slot. The <a href=""> is not working. Should be <a href="./">.
I tested it on my installation, a checkout from yesterday.

I could reproduce the problem with Opera 6.11 on Linux. The link has no effect :-(
According to RFC1808 (section 5), an empty relative URL should be resolved to the exact base URL, which is the expected behaviour here. However, Opera seems to interpret it as "there is no link target". I reported the bug on the Opera web site, so it will hopefully get fixed one day...
Fortunately, in our particular case, we could use either href="." or href="./" which should have the same effect (RFC says...) and avoid this issue with Opera.
We should also check if there are other places in the code where such empty link targets are used.
