Don’t people know that you can close any tab simply by middle-clicking on it (yes, even on Linux)? Not to mention that the “X” button is both harder to click on than the entire tab, and makes it easy to close tabs by mistake, when you just wanted to select it? In other words, there’s already an easy way, and they add a more difficult way, which can easy lead to mistakes? [...] [...] This one, to me, qualifies for the “What were they thinking?” award.

I can't close tabs by using it and I definitely can't get 'new' tabs from links by using it either. How do I get to about:config? or better yet, is there someting simpler to do? Reinstallation didn't work unfortunately. Thank you. my mouse middle click was working fine and then it went away.

When I middle clicked tabs and they just opened some random url (or so it seemed to me), I hadn't got a clue what was going on ^^ Now I also know about the about:config, Yay!

I use the middle click excessively when browing, i open all my links with the middle mouse button and always close tabs with the middle mouse button, it's great. I've also found double clicking on space next to tabs will open a new one When i middle click on tabs it closes that tab…… ubuntu 6.06 here.

Now when I select some text and middle click it it won't open! It's not good, almost as bad as on some machines when your mouse changes into somekind of arrow pointing in all the directions and moves the page where you move your mouse. this is not what I wanted.
