I wasn't very accurate. 
Yes Opera mini supports all those, but if possible a stream lined interface
is better to render in a small screen, although Opera's extensible rendering
architecture can deal with any content just fine. 
Opera mini too supports all the javascript I mentioned, but using that same
javascript in a mobile-phone with limited resources (which is the aim of
this browser) might cause efficiency problems, and mobile phone's input
(small keyboard, few keys) is far from something which allows interactive
rich application to be used efficiently, although the browser supports it.
You could sniff the UA string of the browser and guess the king of mobile
phone the user has, or find the screen width. Opera mini is designed to work
with any java enabled mobile phone which can be anything.
