How to Disable the Mouse wheel click Button?

Question

I\'m trying to find a way of disabling the default action of the mouse wheel button which is to open the link in a new tab.

Is that possible?

Answer 1

My code:

$(document).on('auxclick', 'a', function(e) {
if (e.which === 2) { //middle Click
    e.preventDefault();
    e.stopPropagation();
    e.stopImmediatePropagation();
    return false;
}
return true;
