How to force Marriott.com to show old web site?

Hopefully I'm not the only one with this issue but I couldn't find anything with a search. Since Marriott.com switched to its new web format, it will only display my next 10 upcoming reservations (and in the drop-down on the top, it counts only the reservations in the next 30 days as "upcoming" rather than counting everything I have pending). There is no option to "see more" or "see all" or see anything beyond the first 10 it finds. I primarily use Opera and it always comes up in this format.

However, if I switch to Chrome or Firebox, I get the old website format. In the old format, it correctly shows the number of pending reservations (not just those for the upcoming month) and I get the old display with 5 reservations per page but the option at the bottom to display 5, 10, etc.

Does anyone know how I can force the "old" style to appear in Opera? I've found I've triple-booked some reservations because they weren't showing up in my pending reservations, making me think I had forgotten to book.... so I booked again... Not only is this frustrating for the user, it must seriously mess with hotel inventory because I can't be the only one doing this.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Thanks, seems to work for me using an older version of Chrome and XP.

Just saw the stupidest Marriott commercial about the "golden rule". Deaf woman checks into a CY and had a ASL conversation with desk clerk. Does this imply every single CY or Marriot has a sign language capable employee at the ready? Otherwise, what am I missing, what is the takeaway?

Would be nice if those advertising costs went towards testing & fixing something we all need to use everyday, i'g. the website.

Interestingly, i noticed that using the old website, when viewing a reservation, it shows that I am guaranteed a king bed for a particular stay which is correct. When I view it with the new website, no guarantee is shown for my bed type. it also wont reflect plat. premier status, just plat. one would think these are two glaring problems.

We're stuck with the new and highly dysfunctional website now
New site still doesn't even remember my login when navigating around. What a joke

The UK site is great!

I knows that I want to go to ORD, not Ordu Turkey, allows me to search by zip code, and even lists me correct status!
