Since a prefetched page(s) is/are put to cache, I don't know if there is any indication that those pages are the ones "prefetched". And ..

I don't really think I could tell the difference with/without prefetch. -- *Jay Garcia - Netscape Champion* www.ufaq.org Netscape - Firefox - SeaMonkey - Thunderbird _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
