I am afraid that search engine crawlers, a lot of corporate-setup browsers and browsers embedded in mobile phones disagree with you on the last part. As far as I can tell, there are clean ways to generate links with scripting without breaking them for non-javascript enabled... Regardless, could you give us a bit more context and/or examples (the address of your site, for instance) for us to see the extent of your problem? Regards, -- olivier
