I hate when shortcuts are mapped that **** up my productivity by advancing or backing up a page in browsing history while I'm in the middle of typing or editing a post on a forum someplace and either hit the backspace key or mouse buttons to fix some error. Some of these I've managed to fix but I've run out of patience to find what's causing my newest grief.
Apparently, at least in the latest release of Firefox, my Expert Mouse is somehow triggering a backward page nav by hitting the lower and upper right mouse buttons in succession (and I mean only "in succession" rapid or not; the lower brings up a context menu and the upper activates the "Back" behavior). I'm not currently running mouseworks at all, so I don't know what the heck the system is using to interpret that combo as a nav command to begin with. Does anyone know how to stop this irritating (and destructive!) behavior?
This is a 64217 model connected via usb, if it matters.
On a side rant, this has to be one my greatest pet peeves when I get unanticipated "helpful shortcut" behavior, since I tend to write directly into boxes in browsers rather than on a notepad and then pasting. While that particular combo of buttons may not be something many run into by accident , sometimes my fingers get tired or it happens when I want to move the trackball itself. Is there some kind of software that will help folks like me by autosaving certain text entries made upon page nav? If not, would anyone like to conspire with me to create such a thing?
