Three finger scroll forward/back and Firefox

How come I can't use the three finger scroll feature going forward and back between webpages for Firefox but I can for Safari? Anyone know? thx.

Safari is the only web browser that has the multitouch stuff integrated. You can make multitouch work with any app by using the application MultiClutch. I use it with firefox and it works great.

The application needs support for the gestures. You can try multiclutch to customize, but it doesn't work out for me very well.

I just downloaded multiclutch and it is working out really nicely for me. On top of adding swipe left and right support to firefox, I am using swipe up to close windows and swipe down to page down quicker (really handy for scanning webpages and excel docs).
