As a general rule, Opera is one of the most reliable browsers when it comes to supporting CSS correctly. What exactly do you mean by "negative vertical span margins"? Whatever it is, if it's something that can reasonably be expected to work cross-browser (in that it is valid according to the relevant web standards, rather than relying on undefined behaviour in a few browsers) then I'd be extremely surprised to find that Opera didn't support it. If you can explain what you're trying to do I would imagine somebody can help. Hacks and browser-specific code should always be avoided except as an absolute last resort.
