Yes, there is another way but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone - to make
all your links images. Thus you
can make those images submit buttons in forms with "ACTION" the page you
want to link to. And in those
forms there would be a hidden field - the session ID.
This is not convenient or practical - I just wanted to mention it.
