Firefox and Mouse

[honsbeekgmail]

Hi ,

How can I get Firefow to Go back and Front by clicking on my Mouse Front Back buttons. I use a Logitech MX1000, and in IE it works just fine by simply pressing the side button on the mouse the internet page goes back one page and so on,....

On firefox this doesn't seem to be working, any tips would be appreciated

thank you
Ralph

I use strokes for that.
If you like to try it download the all in one gestures extension. For back you do a stroke from right to left and for front you do it from left to right.

Change those buttons to Generic in the MX1000 driver.

Read your manual?

As I remember you need to go the driver settings - which you can do by finding the Logitech entry in the startmenu list - from there you should find a program which allows you to control various mouse settings - for each of the back / forward buttons change there settings to Generic

Firefox was not ment to run on Windows machines with Windows hardware. It was ment to run on Windows machines with Linux hardware (which does not exist as a stand alone entity), and that means you'r stuck just like I am with IE if you want to use "Windows" hardware. Firefox simply sucks (big time) with mouse support, it does not even work with an IBM track point which was out for years.

..this is very useful and helpful place for information...

WTF are you talking about?!

I posted the answer, and it works fine on ANY hardware.

Not sure what you're talking about either... Firefox works just fine for me... and I'm using a Logitech MX700. The only difference might be I don't have the Logitech software installed.
