I am informed that there is no such problem on 17.2, so it may be a bug in Safari. Also, can you turn off the keyboard to check if the problem persists? Leave only the mouse.

Same behavior without the keyboard and just the mouse connected, also I tried this on Firefox as well had the same behavior.

On iOS Firefox (like any other browser) uses Safari engine, so the bug will persist on all browsers.

I attempted to repo this and wasn't able to. I tried this on 17.2 and 17.4. In both instances mouse was working with the left click using the v3 HAT.

Same happens to me if I use my iPhone for pikvm with a mouse connected. Middle mouse registers as a left click

I am unable to reproduce this issue on an iPhone or iPad, I would suggest activating VNC and using a vnc client like bVNC or Jump as I feel this offers a better user experience for mobile use. There is talk of a web refresh but I am unable to provide an ETA at this time, perhaps at that time, this will resolve the issue.

I've tested in on iPad Pro. Left and right mouse buttons are working, but the middle button acts as the left one.

I found this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254458713

I've done some research. It looks like this is some kind of fundamental problem with iOS or the Safari engine. It interprets any additional mouse button except the right one as the left one, this also works for the side buttons. I'm sorry, but I can't fix it in any way, it's beyond the capabilities of client-side JS.

I didn't try, but iPad and iPhone uses the pretty same browser engine. This can't be fixed either, because we process clicks the way the browser tells us to. That is, the Web UI does not work with the mouse directly.
