Now that you mentioned it, I do remember the problems with the initial beta Gmail. Until you get the work around coded, I'll just add a reminder to the login page for my users, asking them to please use the navigation icons, and not to use back/forward or mouse gestures/keyboard shortcuts.
Guess I need to find some books on AJAX for spring break reading...
Thanks Thomas...

To make the browser's back/forward buttons work is a challenge to each
AJAX-driven web application. Remember Gmail had the same problem in
their first beta and now they fixed it. It's possible to fake the
browser history in order to get correct _javascript_ calls every time the
user clicks on those buttons. It's on my todo-list to implement a work
around that enables the correct behavior of the browser history.
Just note that we are aware of that problem and it will be fixed.
