Need help with joystick

I've been having a hard time getting joystick & mouselook to work together.
My autoexec.cfg file is :
joyadvanced "1"
joyadvaxisx "1"
joyadvancedupdate
+mlook

Mouselook works great, but my joystick works as follows: Push or pull the
stick forwards or reverse, nothing happens. Push the stick to the left, I go
forwards. Push the stick to the right, I go backwards. I want to go forwards
& back with the stick and turn right & left with the stick. How can I make
that happen?

turn left right or strafe left right ?
since your looking left right with the mouse I assume you mean strafe left right
and move foward/backward with the joystick 

joyadvaxisx 3	//sets joystick left & right to strafe left & right
joyadvaxisy 1	//sets joystick forward & backward to forward & backward

here are some other commands that may interest you
from an assassin 3d game controller
which was incorporated into the pantherxl

joyname "your text here"
joyadvanced 1 	//turns on advanced axes variables
joyadvaxisx 3	//sets joystick left & right to strafe left & right
joyadvaxisy 1	//sets joystick forward & backward to forward & backward
//joyadvaxisz 0	//sets throttle to not used
//joyadvaxisr 0	//sets rudder to not used
//joyadvaxisu 20	//sets Assassin 3D left & right to be relative look left
& right
//joyadvaxisv 18	// sets Assassin 3D forward & back to be relative look
up & down
//joypitchsensitivity -0.25	//controls the speed of looking up & down
joypitchthreshold 0.0	//sets Assassin 3D to a zero dead zone looking up & down
joyyawsensitivity -0.5	//controls the speed of looking left & right
joyyawthreshold 0.0	//sets Assassin 3D to a zero dead zone looking left &
right
joyforwardsensitivity -1.0	//Ramp up speed, higher numbers = get to full
forward speed faster
//joyforwardthreshold 0.5	//sets the dead zone for the joystick forward &
backward
joysidesensitivity 1.0	//Ramp up speed, higher numbers = get to full strafe
speed faster
//joysidethreshold 0.5	//sets the dead zone for the joystick side to side

Using these settings causes me to strafe right when I push the stick to the
left, & strafe right when I push it left! How do I correct this?
