[FONT=Courier, Monospaced]i am only a couple of keystrokes past being a flash noob, and i am still so filled with ignorance :). [/FONT][FONT=Courier, Monospaced]

as you first get to this website, a neat little :10 swf plays. right now, i have a ‘home’ and a ‘back’ button on all the pages linked to a static screenprint of where my neat opening .swf ends.

is there a way to prevent that entire opening flash file from replaying again when visitors hit their own browser’s ‘back’ button from the other pages, and just give them the last frame?

i really appreciate anything you can tell me.
