I am making an Flash 9 application with actionscript 3.0 for maemo 5 and for N900. I am using the broser that came with the device. I noticed that in the browser when running my flash application it does not keep MOUSE_DOWN event down, but rather pops up. So every MOUSE_DOWN event is really a CLICK event instead of just MOUSE_DOWN. If I move the mouse when pressed the button down it does MOUSE_MOVE event.

This is making my life difficult if I were to make touch gestures to the application. As the gesture identification happens between mouse down and MOUSE_UP events.

Also I noticed that there was no problem when using a N810 but only in N900. Also other gestures in N900 work. Such as the zooming with finger and etc.

Is there anyway to get the browser support MOUSE_DOWN events?
I'm not sure if this will help you or not, but try using the pointer on the N900. You get this by dragging your finger from the left side of the device onto the screen. you'll see a pointer icon come up. Click on it and your finger will then control a mouse cursor. It was made specifically for menus and stuff like that.. so maybe it will give you what you want.
