New issue 4897 by [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Chrome Middle-click Defeated
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=4897

Chrome Version       : 0.2.149.27
URLs (if applicable) : Secure URL see attachment below
Other browsers tested:  Seamonkey 1.1.13

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. With a customized "My Yahoo!" page, add several panels from RSS feeds.
2. Initialize the panels with different blog feeds. My Yahoo! will show
    the latest entries in each set RSS feed.
3. Middle-click on each item entry.
4. Not all middle-clicks are respected, over 50% of clicks do not result in
    a new tab being opened.

NOTE: Because these steps require a Yahoo! account, I saved the resulting
page and edited it, see below.

What is the expected result?
- A new tab is created for each item which was middle-clicked.

What happens instead?
- Many items that were middle-clicked did not open a new tab.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

The attached file distinctly reproduces the problem. This come from my "My
Yahoo!" page with as much as possible removed to still reproduce the
problem and show the expected behavior. The HTML file below shows 2 links.
Middle-click on the top one and you do not get a new tab. Middle-click on
the bottom one and a new tab is created.

The problem seems related to the 'target="_r"' which is present on the link
which does not respond to middle-clicking and the scripts which are loaded
in the HTML file (some of them being external). If either are removed, the
problem does not occur.
