Pagerank question

would this link pass PR?

[cleal]

I'm currently using a top frame in the outbound links of my page, where I add contextual information. Therefore, my outbound links look something like the following:

a href="link.html?url=http://www.example.com/"

Would such a link pass Pagerank to the destination page (that is, http://www.example.com/)? If not, would it be advisable to add a rel="nofollow" attribute (since I wouldn't want to position "link.html" anyway)?

Presumably you're doing some kind of redirect from the link.html page to send the visitor to http://www.example.com/?

How does this work? Javascript? META REFRESH? 301 Moved Permanantly? or something else?

"Link.html" actually opens a frameset and loads the page specified in the URL atribute (in this case http://www.example.com/) in one of the frames (the bottom one). On the top frame we offer several links back to our information.

Would http://www.example.com/ get any Pagerank for this kind of link? If not, is it possible that our URL (http://www.oursite.com/link.html?url=http://www.example.com/ ) may outrank and push out of the SERPs http://www.example.com/? We'd like to prevent that by all means. Thanks in advance.
