Zope calculates what view you get based on the value of the
authorization information in the HTTP request.  Opera is not sending
this information with the right hand frame (or it is sending it
incorrectly), therefore, Zope does not respond to that request with
information that the request has not authorized itself to see.

I suggest you report this as a bug to the Opera folks.  Since HTTP is
stateless and requests are independent of each other (and framesets make
individual requests), all requests must provide authorization
information for protected resources.
