Is there a way in new Operas to ignore the target attribute of links (to prevent opening in new tabs)?

I don't think userCSS or userJS available as yet, but you might be able should be able to do with js as a bookmarklet...

Start at Userscripts.org but I think there are a number of such sources....

I've ended up installing Violent monkey extension and making my own script for this. In case someone cares, the source is:

// ==UserScript==
// @name Ignore link target
// @author veggen
// @description Ignores the target attribute on links.
// @version 0.1
// @include *
// ==/UserScript==

[].forEach.call(
  document.querySelectorAll('a[target]'), 
  function(targettedLink){
    targettedLink.removeAttribute("target");
  }
);

I think it stopped working today
When I want to download photo from facebook, it opens new empty tab
It wans't like that before

I take that back
It works fine again
honestly, don't know what happened
for some reason some of the scripts and extensions stopped working (your script, facebook redirect fixer extension etc)
but everything seems fine now

What's the difference between TamperMonkey and ViolentMonkey?

Never mind. They're just script managers.
