Using Logitech USB optical scroll wheel mouse, middle-clicking has no effect. Middle-click works in other applications (e.g. Safari), just not Firefox. Contact me if you need further info about the OS setup, hardware, etc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to web page with a hypertext link, e.g. http://www.yahoo.com/ 2. Middle-click any link 3. ??? 4. Profit Actual Results: Nothing. Expected Results: It should have opened the link in a new tab. Cmd-click does open the link in a new tab, and you can right-click/ctrl-click and select "Open in new tab" in the menu. But I'm used to three-button mice, since I work primarily in Linux.
