Use the flash shared object to set a flash cookie. This way, when the user comes back, the playhead will skip the intro and go to a specified frame. You can also use it to control an flv or anything else.
// sets flash shared object version = SharedObject.getLocal("intro_data"); // if first time, show intro if (version.data.intro == undefined) { version.data.intro = "playIt"; version.flush(); trace(version.data.intro); gotoAndPlay("first_time"); // play the intro } else // if not first time, go to nav { gotoAndPlay("second_time"); // go to the frame for 2nd time viewers version.data.intro = "dontPlayIt"; version.flush(); trace(version.data.intro + " else statement"); } On 8/3/06 9:55 AM, "Dan McCullough" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Do you know of a way to make the movie automatically play on > the first visit but then if you come back to the page after viewing > another page, the video doesn't auto-play?
