You could write a script which uses a cookie to remember which users have seen the animation or not, I personally wouldnt use frames but thats just my opinion. Ryan A wrote:

I'll put it in a frame

reload on each

.swf files are not cached by the browsers? Seems they are, so you don't need to care about frames. Simply output the html needed to load the flash file each time, the flash will be downloaded only once.

Hey, Thanks for replying. Yep, but the animation and the intro music will play each time...which I am guessing can be quite irritating. Cheers, Ryan
