[snip] Is there any way for PHP to know whether it is being called due to a browser refresh versus a mouse click? I think the answer is no but I just want to be sure. Thanks. [/snip] Not unless you specifically capture and send a JavaScript onClick event. A mouse click typically takes you somewhere else, so if you are using for a page refresh you could capture and send a JavaScript variable to the PHP script.
