Load link only once

Don't load the url on a reload

[Veil]

Hi folks. I hope this is the correct forum.

I have a site which I use in combination with my VoIP phone. I can send a phone number to the VoIP phone with a link, and then it starts calling. Very cool, but I have a problem.

I made a link like this:

<a href="http://url.voip.phone/?number=012345">Call 012345</a>

This works great, but it opens a webpage, and I'd like to hide it. So I did this:

<a href="http://url.voip.phone/?number=012345" [b]target="hidden"[/b]>Call 012345</a>

It now opens in a frame called 'hidden'.

But now the problem. When I reload the page for whatever reason, this hidden frame is being reloaded also, and my VoIP phone starts calling the last number I sent to it.

So my question is, is there any way to load this url only once? Somewhere in the background?

Thanks for your input!

Well, using JavaScript you could always invoke AJAX to "call" that URL. However, using an iframe ... it shouldn't reload when you refresh the page, should it?
