Issue: middle mouse click on a link in Firefox, nothing happens.
Expected behavior: middle mouse click on a link, open in new browser tab.
Live example: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/

Tested on Win7/Firefox19 Safemode/Non-Safemode failed. IE9/Chrome25 ok.
Notice it when I upgrade to bootstrap v2.3.1.
Switch back to v2.3 and the middle button works again.

Can anyone else confirm this?

I can confirm this behavior in Win7 / FF 19.0 / Bootstrap 2.3.1 / jQuery 1.9.1.
Workaround: Right-click on link and choose "Open Link in new Tab".

Middle mouse button works OK in Chrome 24 and IE 9.

I downgraded to Bootstrap 2.3.0 and middle mouse button is working as expected again.

I also confirm this in Win7 / Firefox 19.0 / Twitter Bootstrap 2.3.1 / jQuery 1.8.3

Confirmed on FF 19.0, Twitter Bootstrap 2.3.1.

I've pinpointed the issue to the Dropdown plugin. If you remove ".on('click.dropdown-menu', function (e) { e.stopPropagation() })" from the "APPLY TO STANDARD DROPDOWN ELEMENTS" section of the Dropdown plugin the middle click will work again. That fix doesn't seem to break dropdowns but I've only given it a quick glance so be careful.

Confirmed FF 19.0.1 Bootstrap 2.3.1

I can also confirm that if you remove the code that marcinszczepkowski mentions it works again.

I can also confirm marcinszczepkowski's solution.

Confirmed this in Firefox, too. Seems like commit 40b7a90 introduced the error.

It looks like there's gonna be a need for v2.3.2 since many things change from v3 and on.

@bmironov Has this been opened as a new issue?

@bmironov

@adamdehaven, No it was not open as a new issue. But apparently @cvrebert is making a lot of work connecting multiple similar issues together (Issue #7118, Issue #7968, #7927). From my point of view they are all saying the same that 2.3.2 broke menus and sub-menus for many mobile browsers.

@bmironov ohhh dropdowns within sitenav. ugh.

@julianlam

Is this a confirmed regression? Dropdown menus work properly in my application (using the new version), but if somebody can independently reproduce the effects @bmironov is seeing, then we might want to re-open this bug.

Sorry, after update to version 22.0 middle didn't work. In IE there was no
problem. Now is working also in FF, but I did reinstall anything.
