I tried to set up 3 finger left and right to emulate backward and forward.  
When I use the feature in my internet browser, it goes back several pages 
rather than one page.

chromium web browser.
64bit ubuntu 11.04
2010 macbook air with multitouch drivers installed.

Hi! You can try to use the Alt+Left/Alt+Right shortcut. I use it without any 
problem, this is my own configuration:

    <application name="Chromium-browser, Dolphin, Plasma-desktop">

        <gesture type="DRAG" fingers="2" direction="LEFT">
            <action type="SEND_KEYS">Alt+Left</action>
        </gesture>

        <gesture type="DRAG" fingers="2" direction="RIGHT">
            <action type="SEND_KEYS">Alt+Right</action>
        </gesture>

    </application>

this syntax looks different from what is in my touchegg.conf file.  
touchegg.conf is in /usr/share/touchegg (rather than ~/.config/touchegg) on my 
setup.  entering the code you provided doesn't work.

Ooops, I'm sorry, this sintax is for the next version (SVN code) you can edit 
the action from the GUI. Assign to your gestures a send keys action with:

Key to hold down: Control_L
Key to press: Left or Right depending of the gesture

Greetings!
