NRC Digitale Editie Fix
Suppresses the default annoying behavior of digital NRC. Instead of opening articles in a lightbox only accessible through left click, this script replaces this ludicrousness with regular links so you get all the power that comes with regular links, such as opening them in background, creating linked windows, etcetera.
This script can be used alone, but I recommend using it in conjunction with my new user CSS (which remains closer to the default layout) or Zotlan's (which turns the contrast around).
A separate settings file can be used, though for now there's only one setting.
Tested with Opera version(s):

Great fix
After submitting a question about this side Frenzie also a user of this site for a long time got into this and fixed it. He delivered great work in a very short time. A five star rating is in place and when Opera is going to work with kudos he earned the first 1000 on behalf of this fix.

Thanks! It's no problem. I've been somewhat annoyed by this very behavior for years, but not enough to take action. Besides, I've usually been busy. Right now I didn't have anything else begging for my time, and clearly other people were annoyed by it as well. :)

Nice, much easier now to open
Nice, much easier now to open many articles in many tabs.
Just a heads up, the NRC is
Just a heads up, the NRC is changing the Digitale editie so this script is likely to become deprecated. Their new version is expected in september and has clearly been made by fans of lightbox.
I hate lightboxes
They're like popups, except even worse because popups were at least very manageable in Opera. DO NOT WANT. =(
Nice that they're making the entire digital archive available though. And they really ought to make the text version better and the default. It's the Internet, not some paper-based medium. The light-version is a little better, but still.

What's even worse is that
What's even worse is that they have apparently tested the new site in everything, except Opera.
So yeah, fun times ahead

jah, it's working for me too now, it was just that one day that it wasn't working and i never updated my comment.
Oh, OK. There were a few days
Oh, OK. There were a few days when they just switched that the whole thing was a big disaster; that had nothing to do with the script :P
