The following is an archive of comments made before threaded discussions was implemented (November 16th, 2008)

(updated, as now only works with onload as below)

The TImes changed the script again. Now, it uses Prototype and only pops up a question mark. To get rid of it, you can use:

addEventListener("load",
function()
{
window.location.href = "javascript:void(document.stopObserving(\"mouseup\"));";
}, false);

Ditto: Thank you thank you thank you.

I've actually written to the times' webmaster about this... Some people, when they read on the web, like to click around the page a lot. (It's something like 30% I think.) I'm a clicker and it drives me nuts to constantly have to close that damn window.

They replied that they're aware that the doubleclick is annoying and that they're working on a new system that is less irritating to clickers.

Oh, thank you thank you thank you thank you!
