FWIW, Gmail's "Refresh" link is not a link: <span class="lk" id="refresh">Refresh</span> It is styled exactly like a link ("lk") with underlined blue text. There is a code, which handles onclick event on this pseudo link. "Sign out" is a link with parameters: http://mail.google.com/mail/?logout&hl=en --- GWA doesn't follow links with parameters. My point is it is possible to prevent GWA and similar systems from following your links without server-side support. Thanks, Eugene
