Hi Vincent, Thanks for your detailed response! As you mentioned this may not be the most appropriate forum for this topic. However, I was hoping for some code suggestion using SWFobject.
To be more specific, this is the browser behavior that I'm trying to accomplished. 1) By "once-per-session", I mean until the browser is restarted, every time an auto-play movie loads, it resumes at the last saved position. For example, if the user was to click on a page with a swf file and then click on another page before the wsf file finishes, the file would resume where it left off if the user returned that page. Once the swf file has played once all the way through only the last position is displayed. This is so the user doesn't have to keep watching the entire swf file every time he returns during a session with the website. Once the browser is restarted all the swf files are reset to their beginning positions. Look into this more closely, it appears the best option is use Actionscript to store the current state (eg. the current frame or position) in a SharedObject (http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/ flash/net/SharedObject.html). Then every time the movie loads, resume at the last saved position. However, I don't have a clue how to set this up using actionscript. I have spent a good amount of time looking on the web for some code samples but have surprisingly found little. I would suspect that most sites with swf movies/animations/slideshows would want to implement "once-per-session" behavior for autoplay movies so as not to fatigue visitors. If you or anyone else has any code suggestions please share. Thanks, Sam -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SWFObject" group.
