problem

lets say I am at the bottom of a thread and I want to go to the top. I hold down the scroll wheel on the mouse and move the mouse up to the top.

if i let off the scroll wheel on top of something that is a link it will open that link in another tab in chrome.

it does this on my home and work computers. it just started doing this recently. I am thinking it is something on your end due to the fact that it is doing this on several different computers and it just started doing it recently (couple of months maybe).

Re: problem

Doesn't sound like anything we could have changed and in the past two months, we haven't changed much. Certainly nothing that would control how your mouse and browser behaves.

Could be a lot of things. Does it only do this in Chrome? Does it only do it on this site or others as well?

A few solutions...
  • Try a different browser and see if the same thing happens.
  • Middle click on a link without scrolling and see if the same thing happens.
  • Make sure your mouse scroll wheel isn't set to open a link in a new window on click.
  • Click the "TOP" button in the lower right corner of each post to do the same thing.
  • Don't scroll the cursor to a link when you let up.

Re: problem

Thanks. We haven't updated the board in a while. Sounds like a browser/mouse settings issue.
