Hi,

   Like Kenneth said - you need to pass all your navigation from  
Flash through SWFAddress and don't directly create windows when  
someone clicks a button in Flash, but you listen for the changes to  
the SWFAddress value and open windows based on the value.  That  
way, when someone clicks the forward & back buttons in the browser,  
the history changes the SWFAddress value, so your Flash will keep  
up...



//Somewhere in your init, you listen for changes to SWFAddress
SWFAddress.addEventListener(SWFAddressEvent.CHANGE, _changeHandler);

//Do your "normal" setup for buttons.   
this.contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, newClick);


var internal:Boolean = false;

function newClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
   //here is the swfAddress//
   //You only set the value in here - you wait for SWFAddress to  
tell you something has changed before doing anything

   swfAddress.setValue(e.currentTarget.name);
   //You might want to set a variable here like "internal = true"  
if you want to know whether clicks are from inside Flash or from  
the browser..

   internal = true;
}

//Handle changes in
function _changeHandler(event:SWFAddressEvent):void {

   var newWindow:NewWindow = new NewWindow();
 //The path value of the event contains the new SWFAddress path  
in your history.
   //On first load of the page you will get "/" as the path so you  
need to handle this.

   var path:String = event.path;
   if("/" == path) {
  path = "/home";
   }
   //Maybe do something if your internal variable was true.
   if(true == internal) {
  //Do something different maybe if someone clicked in Flash?
   }
   //reset internal
   internal = false;
   newWindow.name= path;
   //...

You should not create your "NewWindow" in the "newClick" function. Do so on SWFAddressEvent.CHANGE 
event instead.
