Back button

Print versionEdit this page
The method to make the browser's back button work with Flash is to use a (invisible) frame that is updated at the same time with the Flash content. The HTML on the page tells Flash to update as well, setting a Flash state variable.

When you hit Back, the frame content loads the previous page, and Flash gets the new state variable passed. Of course you should maintain state management in Flash, so this should be planned in advance!
