Here’s the site (still not finished), [Reprise](http://www.reprise-themovie.com)

I have music that plays for 30 sec while you’re browsing. Now when you click “trailer,” it takes you to another URL on a blank page where there’s a trailer (until we can get one for the site), and the music pauses. On the button, I have the following code:

on (release) {getURL(“[http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/354055/Reprise/trailers","\_blank](http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/354055/Reprise/trailers%22,%22_blank)”);  
}  
on (release) {myMusicPosition = (\_root.soundObject.position)/1000;  
\_root.soundObject.stop();  
}

What I’d love to be able to happen, is when you close out that blank page and return to the site, the music would resume playing. Is this possible?

Thanks!!
