mouse hover acts like a click...?
611263
I have tried for over two hours now to find such a setting, since i remebr something similar a long time a ago. i cannot find any setting on windows 98, 2000 or XP, that i know of that could do that.\n \nAt one point I thought it might be tweak UI but it couldn't be. The only thing i can think of is that you are using a laptop and your touchpad has a control program. if you are using a laptop go and check the touch pad configuration\n\nIf you aren't using a touchpad you might have installed extra software for the mouse, in which case you should check if it has such an option.\n\nI also saw on the net that people write programs to do exactly what you are complaining about and the charge $29.00 for thier programs. So also check if there is a third party mouse or configuration app running on the computer, especially if the person who owns the computer is slightly blind. \n\nIf i think of something else i'll come back.

Go to control panel and look for the mouse folder. You can configure it there.

Be aware that hover isn't the only value - that only controls what happens when your mouse is over the link. \n\nA:link                                 -   a link on page\nA:visited                           -  visited\nA:active                            -  the current page\nA:hover                             -  holding mouse over link

Usually there is an adjustment for the driver that operates it. Check your Windows Control Panel to see if there is anything there referencing a mouse or pointing device.

If you're on a Mac, click and drag.

Your mouse is most likely dirty.  some dust got inside and that is why it acting up.  Just open it up and use a Q- tip with rubbing alchol on it and clean it.  It should work perfect again.

You may use Javascript for it. But my advice is that you should noy change default cursor, people navigating on a website find it inconvinient

It would help to know if you're using a desktop with attached (plugged in) mouse or a laptop with a touch pad.  Also the make of your computer. I'm also not sure if the mouse problem happens only with Yahoo or with all other web site you go to.  So go ahead and open Yahoo.  While Yahoo is open and displayed on your screen,  try these things:\n1. Click start > control panel > mouse.  A dialog box called Mouse Properties should appear. Look for a tab called Hardware and click on the tab. It should tell you if the device is working properly and if it isn't, there should be a Troubleshooting button. Click on this and it will take you through some steps to try to isolate and fix the problem.\n2. If the troubleshooter says the mouse is working properly, you might also see some other tabs called Pointer, Pointer Options and Device Settings. Click on one tab at a time and try changing your settings for sensitivity, movement, etc.  Go to the Yahoo screen and see if the change(s) affect the mouse movement.\n3. If it's a plug-in mouse, does it have a removable ball? Remove and clean it with alcohol, and also clean the rollers. Give it a try. If that doesn't help, see if you can borrow another mouse. If that solves the problem you probably need a new mouse.\n\nHope some of this helps.\n\nplrr

Sounds like either your mouse is faulty or it was static. If it happens regularly when you touch your mouse then it is a fault and you should get a new one. If it hasn't happened since that day then it was probably static.

Use the java.awt.Robot class.  It has the moveMouse() method.  Handy for automated testing, self-running demonstrations, etc.

OK, try this. Go to Start > Control Panel > Printers and other Hardware > Mouse > and then uncheck the "turn on click on". Click OK. See if that solves the problem if not you can change other settings in the 'mouse window'

Does this happen outside of Internet Explorer?\n\nIn other words, test CTRL-F in other programs like Microsoft Word or Notepad.  Most importantly, we would also need to know if this has worked fine before in the past.\n\n\nIt would appear at this point that perhaps the keys on your keyboard aren't specified the way you think they are.  Laptops are notorious for this.  A lot of them have special function keys that can switch on options to cause certain keys to act differently.\n\n****  UPDATE  ****\n\nDid you try going to Edit -> Find from the menu at the top?  Does that option work correctly?\n\nBecause this doesn't happen in other apps such as Notepad, it's not an issue with your keyboard at least.  That's a good thing!
