Ah, professor (we do have lot's of professors here, don't we?), that's  
what we are talking about here. Oh, MB3 is mouse button 3, some of us call  
it MRCB (mouse right click button) or just MRB. Of couse, Chrome can let  
you change that to MMW (mouse middle wheel or MSW - mouse scroll wheel) If  
we had known what you are talking about, we might have answered you  
earlier. In earlier versions of Chrome, you cannot even use DBC (double  
click) to circumvent this, (I mentioned this when Chrome first came out).   
But I am relieved that MB3 is not some arcane application in Chrome I do  
not know about.

Heh heh - Regards, Take care, Kenneth. - Goh Lip

ps: by the way, Opera still has the best mouse gestures and can be custom  
modified.
