The MouseEvent button property is used to define the left or right click events. When mouse button is clicked then it return an integer value which describe the left, right or middle mouse button. Return Value: This event return an integer value on mouse click events are: 0: It indicates the left mouse button.
Many mice and some touchpads have a middle mouse button. On a mouse with a scroll wheel, you can usually press directly down on the scroll wheel to middle-click. If you don't have a middle mouse button, you can press the left and right mouse buttons at the same time to middle-click.
An element receives a click event when a pointing device button (such as a mouse's primary mouse button) is both pressed and released while the pointer is located inside the element.
"auto-scroll", "Auto-scrolling is a feature that can be found in most mainstream modern applications. Pressing the middle mouse button transfers the application into the auto-scrolling mode.
Had the same question, did a lot of digging, and this is what I ended up using:
if ( window.CustomEvent ) {
var middleClick = new MouseEvent( "click", { "button": 1, "which": 2 });
jQuery(".selector")[0].dispatchEvent( middleClick );
}
