title: Can I prevent Middle click opening a link to start auto scroll instead?
body: <p>I am creating a component that shows a bunch of user photos inside a container with overflow:auto, each photo is surrounded by an <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> tag. There is no space around these images, so if the user ever users the middle click to auto scroll this list of photos it will ALWAYS open the link instead of starting auto scroll. That means auto scroll doesn't work.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a trick that will make a middle click that occurs inside one of these image links to use the auto scroll rather than opening the link in a new tab?</p>
  
  <p>Here is a fiddle that demonstrates the issue :

  <p>My original fiddle actually showed the scroll bar - which then allowed the middle click on the scroll bar itself - but in my actual case the scroll bars are hidden with a negative padding so that I can display a custom scroll bar (which I simulated using simple up/down buttons).</p>
