How to prevent mouse gestures events from JavaScript

Hi,

we're developing a web app that has draggable control elements on an HTML page. Some of our customers are using Opera. Every time they try to use these widgets, their browser takes them back to the login page, misinterpreting the dragging as a mouse gesture.

Is it possible to catch these events and use event.preventDefault() or something similar to prevent Opera from navigating away from the current page?

Thanks
