Hi Leila, You can find part of the solution already in the History Button behavior that you can find here... <http://nonlinear.openspark.com/tips/behavior/updates/> ... and which is demonstrated here: <http://nonlinear.openspark.com/tips/navigation/history/index.htm> This tracks which markers the user jumped to, and in which order. It is intended to allow the user to retrace her steps through a set of movies, but it could be easily hijacked and made to write out a list of buttons clicked, markers and movies visited, dates and times. I also have a version of my Multiple Undo script which records all user activity for a given session to an external file. The file for any session can later be loaded and played back, showing the exact path a user took through a movie, including all the modifications. This script is not currently on-line, but you can see how the standard Multiple Undo scripts work at: <http://www.director-online.com/buildArticle.php?id=1131>.
