I'm out! Hey I have an idea... lets build an input device which includes a button that depresses AND scrolls... and do so in a way that makes it difficult for users to use the button press functionality.. so they then complain when software developers attempt to utilize that action in a useful way. If i was a conspiracy theorist I'd claim your hardware manufacturer was deliberately trying to cripple the functionality of the middle-click button. Oh wait I am a conspiracy theorist and they are deliberately trying to cripple the functionality of the middle-click button. Explain the me the point of including the middle-click functionality in an input device and making it delibrately difficult to use. Sounds like pathetically poor hardware design to me. -jef"I have no problem with my clickable scroll-wheel mouse.
