Opera detects http content in https web pages only when the top-level frame uses https, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary web script, in an https sites context, by modifying an http page to include an https iframe that references a script file on an http site, related to HTTP-Intended-but-HTTPS-Loadable (HPIHSL) pages.
