No, without cookies/shared objects there's no way to be sure. If you need to be reliable, they have to log in; if you only need reasonable reliability, then you can go for cookies (incidentally, logging in is better because it means different users can share a computer, and one user can use different computers). Alternatively, I find 'skip intro' to be a reasonably effective option :) Danny _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
