Use Your Mouse Wheel Button Differently

These tricks work on Browsers like Mozilla Firefox & Google Chrome. It may also work with the latest Internet Explorer. Save your time using the following tricks.
 
  • Opening Links in a New Tab: Sometimes when we wish to open a link in new tab,we right-click on the the link and choose ‘Open Link in New Tab'. Here’s a much quicker way. Just click on the link with the scroll wheel button. The link will open in a new tab. We can even click on the Home button or the Forward/Back button to open the respective URL in a new tab.
  • Closing Tabs: To close a tab, we can just place the mouse cursor on a tab and click with the scroll wheel. This is more convenient and faster than clicking the small cross on the tabs, especially when we want to close several tabs.
  • Scrolling through the tabs: When we have many tabs open, an arrow appears on either end of the tab bar to let us scroll through the tab bar and view the hidden tabs. There is a much easier way. Just place the mouse cursor anywhere on the tab bar and scroll your mouse wheel up and down to scroll through the tab bar.
  • Moving Forward/Back: You can use the scroll wheel as an alternative to using the Forward and Back buttons on the toolbar. Hold down the Shift key and rotate the wheel forward to view the next page or rotate backward to see the previous page.
  • Zooming: To zoom into a page, hold the Ctrl key and turn the scroll wheel away from you. Similarly, to zoom out, hold the Ctrl key and rotate the scroll wheel towards you.
