Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 259450

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Rod Stewart]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

Just installed the Logitech LX700 wireless keyboard and mouse (click! plus).

The mouse has two buttons on the left side.  They are for Forward and Backward
like the forward and backward arrows.  They do work in IE6, but not in Firefox.
 When pressed, nothing happens.

By the way, I have dumped IE6 for Firefox.  I really like the tabs.  And the
Favorites are much better behaved than IE.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Need the Logitech LX700 wireless keyboard and mouse installed.
2.  Make sure that you have web pages that you can access with the forward and
backward arrows.
3.  Click either of the forward or backward buttons on the left side of the mouse.


Actual Results:  
Nothing happens.  That is, you are not taken to the web page as you would with
the arrows.  Note that nothing negative happens with Firefox.  It continues to
function properly, just not change the web page.

Expected Results:  
The same as selecting the Forward or Backward arrows.  As it works in IE6.
