Here, the probable culprit is the webmail HTML page, and possibly
the convoluted Javascript in it. There are page generator-built
web pages thet contain immensely cryptic Javascript. The browsers
do small miracles opening and interpreting them so quickly.

Just have a look at the webmail page source (Ctrl-U or CMD-U on
many browsers).
