Coppermine Wrapped in Mambo: Only One URL?

I've wrapped CM 1.3 in Mambo 4.5.2 and bridged successfully to it so that logins are seemless, but I've run into one snag:

Regardless of where you browse in the gallery, the URL is stuck on the CM component.  That is, the URL always looks like

http://www.tcf.ua.edu/index.php?option=com_cpg&Itemid=76

And thus there is no unique URL for individual pictures.  This causes problems for links like those for the emailed pictures.

If you look at the UNwrapped version, then everything works fine:

http://www.tcf.ua.edu/gallery/displayimage.php?album=34&pos=0

I love the consistent look of the wrapped CM, but I'd hate to lose the functionality of unique URLs. 

Any suggestions?  Thanks!

afaik the Mambo wrapper is just a page using frames/iframes, so this is expected behaviour and a main drawback when using frames. As far as I know there's no "real" mambo bridge for cpg1.3.x
