Thanks for the idea.  preventing and/or canceling the click event
doesn't work either.

I did some digging and found this article which states the middle
click can not be suppressed in FF.

Guess I'll have to figure out some other mouse/key combination to have
a single click for opening a new window.

Event Cancel for Middle Button on Firefox 2

2008-10-07 Thread Chris 

I am trying to override the middle button click on FF2.  I can capture
the middle button mouseup event; but it seems that the default FF
action of opening the link in a new window/tab is not stopped.  I am
using the following:


   private class SubMenuLink extends Hyperlink{

  public SubMenuLink(String text, String view){
 super(text, view);
 sinkEvents(Event.ONCONTEXTMENU);
 sinkEvents(Event.ONMOUSEUP);
 sinkEvents(Event.ONMOUSEDOWN);
  }

  @Override
  public void onBrowserEvent(Event event){
 super.onBrowserEvent(event);
 if(DOM.eventGetType(event) == Event.ONCLICK) {
; //do nothing
 } else if(DOM.eventGetType(event) == Event.ONCONTEXTMENU) {
DOM.eventPreventDefault(event);
Window.alert("context sub menu link");
cm.show(this, new String[]{"target",
getTargetHistoryToken()});

 } else if(DOM.eventGetType(event) == Event.ONMOUSEUP) {
switch(DOM.eventGetButton(event)){
   case Event.BUTTON_MIDDLE:
  DOM.eventPreventDefault(event);
  event.cancelBubble(true);
  Window.alert("middle sub menu link");
//  openInNewWindow(new String[]{"target",
getTargetHistoryToken()});
  break;
}
 } else if(DOM.eventGetType(event) == Event.ONMOUSEDOWN) {
DOM.eventPreventDefault(event);
event.cancelBubble(true);

 }
  }
   }

Is it possible to cancel the middle button click in FF2?

Chris...
