- netneutrality, on 11/06/2008, -0/+5Ohhhhhh now I get it :) I'm only an occasional Linux user and when I encountered that middle-clicking-on-a-non-link-area in Firefox thing, I thought it was a bug. It kept complaining about an invalid URL. I guess this explains it.
- manutd8611, on 11/06/2008, -0/+3i'd never heard of the middleclick copying and pasting. I'm gonna use this all the time.

Note the middle click on scrollbar trick works on any gtk application at least.
It didn't know firefox had specific logic for it, but I guess it does to support this on windos.

- TheWindBlows, on 11/07/2008, -0/+2I use it all the time already. Suprising you didn't it's one of those accident features you run into. Also there is 3 button emulation in linux if you click left and right at the same time its like middle clicking.

Oh, and it has it's own dictionary! Totally awesome! I need to add a word once for every other program I use, and then again for Firefox!
