<CTRL> click doesn't work on one site any more

I've been an evangelical Firefox user for over 20 years now, and rarely have any problems. However... every day, I read The Times online (my mother gets a free digital subscription with her paper version), and they've recently changed their site radically.

So it's probably not a FF problem, but The Times people aren't helpful.

Anyway, as I scroll down the index page, I usually <CTRL> click on potentially interesting articles, to open them in separate tabs. When I have a few open, I go through them and read each one in turn.

With the new Times version, when I do this, the index page also changes to the one I've selected for the new tab, which is annoying. I asked their support people about it, but their reply was that <CTRL> click "isn't supported".

Obviously this is disappointing, as it's how I've always done things, and it still works on every other website I visit!

Can anything be done in FF to make it work?

Thanks :-D
