can the left and right side buttons be used to go back and forward on online websites?

I'm sure there is a way, in the software that comes with the mouse you can macro any button to do anything. I haven't really messed with it yet though

If you mean the Left and Right Small Buttons...then yes...you can use those for Forward and Back on sites.

You can use those on the web browser to go forward and backwards. You can also use them for gaming. Hope that helps

Left click, right click, middle wheel click, and 2 side buttons. The wheel you can push to the left or right to move around a webpage. There is a up and down switch under the scroll wheel that adjust movement speed. and last there is a button on the right side that switches profiles you have set-up, which also changes the color of the blinking "GHOST" logo

NO, the buttons only work with Windows as far as I have found. I have used it on both and only work with forward/backward buttons on internet browser of your choice on windows.

Yes. The joystick comes pre-mapped as the arrow keys. So you could scroll like that. Or you may be able to customize it in some way. You could remap some of the joystick directions as mouse scroll wheel movement. For instance when you press the stick forward it acts as if you rolled the mouse scroll wheel forward, that should be fairly smooth for webpages. Hope this helps

No. You can R and L click. It doesnt have buttons, so it appears that you can't Click left or right but you most definately can. Its a pretty cool mouse!

Yes, in games like Skyrim and oblivion I have the side buttons mapped to different functions. I haven't figured out if you can program the buttons outside of game play. By default they are mapped to go back and forward on web pages.

No, but it allows similar function by holding a button and move the whole mouse forward and backward.

I have primarily used it with power point but it should work with any of the other programs to forward or reverse the pages

Yes, although it depends on the app you're using. Some apps only allow to turn between pages.

Opera browser had/has functionality for right click then left to navigate webpages forward and back. Something like that may be an option.

The forward and backward buttons seem to send the same signal as Page Up and Page Down. So if Page Up/Down work in Adobe Reader to advance slides, then it should work.

If you install USB Overdrive, you can configure the buttons (i use it for back and forward on browsers). with USB Overdrive, you can also reverse the direction of the scroll on just the mouse (without impacting the scroll of the touchpad--which somehow makes sense to me. i'm sure i'm not the only one.

The device is plug and play, so they're equipped with default functions. Left-click, scroll wheel, and right-click are self-explanatory. The two side buttons allow you to go forward or back on web browsers.If you want to program the buttons, consider installing a scripting program such as AutoHotKey. It allows you to give specific functions to specific buttons. For example, you can bind one of the side buttons to open up Microsoft word, etc.

I believe you can set it up to do so. You loose the forward/back, from one web page to another, feature if you set this up. I have not done so, however, so I am not entirely sure.
