The problem with online play
If the button is a maniac maybe you can call, but it is so much harder to make those reads online. Not knowing the player well I would fold. His play is not inconsistent with a flush, and it's hard to put him on anything that doesn't beat you, unless he's a known LAG.
Like most respondents, I probably would have 3 bet the flop, if for no other reason to try to get it heads up. Your 2 pair is vulnerable to being counterfeited, and if the cutoff has an A with a mediocre kicker you want to chase him out or make him pay a lot to draw. If the button is on a 4 flush let him play against your made hand heads up.
I really find such situations harder to read online. Much less feel for the game; players don't have to show losing hands (I REALLY HATE that); tell reading is a total non-option.
