SUMMARY

This article describes how to scroll Web pages in Internet Explorer using a three-button mouse on a Sun workstation.

MORE INFORMATION

If three-button mouse functionality is enabled on the Sun workstation or X server, you can use the middle mouse button to scroll Web pages in Internet Explorer. To do so, position the mouse pointer on the Web page, and then click the middle mouse button. This causes a circle with arrows to be displayed. Moving the mouse pointer in the direction of an arrow scrolls the Web page in that direction. To disable this functionality, click the middle mouse button again.

NOTE: You can scroll a Web page only if scroll bars are displayed in the browser window.
