93158 - Internet mouse buttons do not fuction under Windows ME

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 30431

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Jason Love]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90)
BuildID:    2001062815

The internet mouse button actions "Back", "Forward" and "AutoScroll" do not 
work with Mozilla under Windows ME.  They do, however, appear to work with 
Windows 2000.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Using a mouse with three or more buttons, assign one the "back" action to 
one of them using the default windows mouse control panel applet or the one 
that is installed with Intellipoint 3.2.
2.  Open Mozilla and browse a few pages or so into any website
3.  Click the mouse button that is assigned the "back" command to attempt to go 
back a page.

Actual Results:  Nothing happens.  The same thing goes for the "forward" 
and "autoscroll" commands.  The mouse wheel does work.

Expected Results:  These commands should be interpreted by Mozilla just as they 
are with Netscape and IE.  Back button should go back one page, forward should 
go forward and autoscroll should bring up the autoscroll icon and scroll the 
page in all directions by moving the mouse.

I have tested this with and without Intellipoint 3.2 installed and with two 
different mice (an older intellimouse 1.1A PS/2 and a new Intellimouse Explorer 
USB).   Mozilla does not respond to the internet shortcut buttons when assigned 
to any of the mouse buttons.  

The mouse shortcut actions do work under Windows 2000.  I have not had the 
opportunity to check Windows 98 or 95.
