How do I enable middle mouse clicking?

What does that even mean? If you want people to answer, please take the time to explain what you're asking.– Jo-Erlend SchinstadMar 20, 2012 at 19:14

@Jo-ErlendSchinstad Take a look at the title...– Eliah KaganAug 14, 2012 at 20:58

It's not clear to me what "open a new tab/close tab" means.– Jo-Erlend SchinstadAug 15, 2012 at 1:37

This behaviour should be enabled by default with Firefox, it may be that your system is not recognizing middle clicks.
To check whether "middle click open in a new tab" is activated type about:config
into the URL bar in Firefox (and click the "I'll be careful" button, if prompted).
In the search bar type middleclick
Make sure the Value for browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick is set to true (if it is "False" then double click to change it) `

I've had this problem as well but the value had already been set to true. I changed it to false and then to true again. Now it's working!– JulesDec 7, 2017 at 11:07
