It works!
Kyrax was right, I modified the script and works like a charm on chrome 3.0.182.3

The final version is:

Code:

// ==UserScript==
// @name Mouse Gestures for Google Chrome
// @author vhanla
// @namespace http://www.codigobit.net/ 
// @version 1.0
// @description Allows to use mouse gestures for navigating through pages
// @include *
// @exclude
// ==/UserScript==

(function() {

var posx = 0;
var posy = 0;
var estado = false; 
var gestdown = function(event) {
if (event.which)
button = (event.which < 2) ? "LEFT" :
((event.which == 2) ? "MIDDLE" : "RIGHT");
if (button =="RIGHT"){ 
estado=true;
posx=event.clientX;
posy=event.clientY;
document.oncontextmenu = new Function("return false")
}
}
var gestup = function(event) { 
if (estado){
estado=false;
if(event.clientX+25<posx){ 
window.history.back(); 
}
else if(event.clientX-25>posx){ 
window.history.forward();
}
else if(event.clientY-25>posy){
window.open();
}
else if(event.clientY+25<posy){
window.close();
}
else void(document.oncontextmenu=null)
}

}
window.addEventListener("mousedown", gestdown, false);
window.addEventListener("mouseup", gestup, false); 
})();

Thank you guys, now that I have gestures and adblock in chrome, I can change my primary browser to chrome

Cheers!

Kyrax is one cool cat, isn't he?

Meow!

Mouse gesture is something that I've always loved in a browser.
If you guys need more feature from that script, I guess we could add some..

Maybe we should get someone to work on a mouse gesture extension (instead of a userscript).

Mouse gestures aren't my thing but if you are volunteering yourself to work on an extension I'll volunteer myself to help test ;-)

Count me in, at least for testing.

I was wondering if it can be rewritten to read "complex" gestures: up-down, down-left, etc. Maybe saving some points during a gesture and match that to a library of gestures.
Secondly, leave a trail like in other browsers/extensions to see what what you are doing. Can it be done using the canvas Mr. Vic Gundotra (Google) was talking about as a new feature in HTML5? (I maybe talking crazy here )

horatzica, you are right on pretty much everything.

Yes, it can be rewrittern to read complex gestures. Yes, to do that the best option should probably be to save some points during a gesture and match it to a library of existing gestures or to a self made gesture.

As for the trail, yes this can probably be done using the canvas tag. You could also for example draw a letter " x " on the whole mouse gesture.

I don't think i'll volunteer myself. I already am quite busy this summer (Not busy enough to stop me from posting here it seems)

It seems that by starting digging into this, we came to a great solution. Kyrax thank you for fixing this. By this mouse gesture is added. AdSweep does it's job pretty good, but not as good as Adblock from firefox. What I really miss is the smooth scroll feature. In rest, chrome would be the real deal.

Maybe you should create a request thread under "Plugins" for a "smooth scroll" feature.

Not sure what you mean, but I bet someone could help you.

@horatzica

thanks for the script

working in Chromium 3.0.183.0 (17340) under Win 7

EDIT

funny though; it's not working in Chrome 3.0.182.3 and Chromium 3.0.183.0 (17360) with WinXP
