I need to know how to use the Back/Foward buttons with IE. I have a movie that has several frames. Each frame is a section of the page. If you go to a different section of the page, I want to be able to use the back button to go back to the previous section you were at.

I have searched around and found this, but it is of little help to me. I don’t know anything about how to use Javascript and flash.

I have heard rumors that there is a way to do this with named anchors, any truth to this?

Thanks in advance to all you hip kats here at kirupa.
