Hi folks 🙂

I’ve been trying to build a simple music player that loops a single track with off / on controls. So far everything’s perfect except for this issue:  
[INDENT] **The player is placed in a regular html page - so when the user navigates to another page with the music player, the music starts playing from the beginning.**

The way anybody expects it to be is - **the music should pause when any link on the page is clicked and then resume from the same point in the newly loaded page.**  
[/INDENT]I’ve been trying to do this using a combination of Shared Objects in Flash (aka flash cookies) and passing variables to the movie clip using onClick() events in JavaScript. But so far there’s been no luck. _(I have, however, been successful in using flash cookies to track if the user has turned off the music)_

Are there any alternate ways of accomplishing the same effect? Have any of you done something similar in the past?

Thanks!
