thanks first for making this clear. It was what i was talking about and fiddling with by trial-and-error. (And it works with Opera just as usual.) But what i actually wanted to ask is: can i assign keys somewhere in bb to simulate that "middle-mouse-button-click", e.g. some setting in bbkeys? I have only recently switched from Win to Linux and am quite used to Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V...
