Firefox goes back and forth upon highlighting text

Firefox goes back and forth upon highlighting text When I select text by holding down the left mouse key and drag the mouse to the left, Firefox interprets it as if I had hit the Back Button. Same for the "left to right" move...

"Just a note related to your question: sometimes when using online editors such as TinyMCE, Firefox can get confused when using Delete/Backspace, or (on a Mac) when using Cmd-Left or Cmd-Right to go to the start or end of a line. Actually, the very same editor used on a different website might not show these problems. (Often these problems are related to some special dynamic loading of the editor, which then confuses the browser.)

To disable navigation using Delete/Backspace one can set the Browser.backspace_action preference.

To disable navigation using specific other keys, one can use the keyconfig add-on."
