Default Stop virtual keyboard from popping up in opera

Hey guys, recently joined this forum since i got my first wm device, the SE X1

I searched the forum trying to find a way to stop the virtual keyboard from popping upp as soon as I select an input box in the opera web browser. So I was hoping you guys could help me.

oh btw, atm - I suck on wm, but Im very keen on learning so if you have any newbie tips for me that would be great too.

thanks,
Agaas

AFAIK this is a persistent problem, but there is a null keyboard without any keys which wont get in your way when it pops up.

Same problem since years and generations of WM
I don't recognize it anymore. One tab on the hardware-keyboard and it is off again.
