**Situation:**  
Multiple HTML pages with an animated flash display panel.  
Each HTML page contains a seperate swf file.

**Problem:**  
The user needs to be able to toggle sound on/off  
and that setting needs to remain when the user views the other pages.

**Solution ???**  
I have been trying to use ‘shared object’ in conjunction with ‘stopAllSounds’  
with little success. Is this the right approach, if so how can I make it work, if no, can someone please point me in the right direction?
