This topic has come up a couple times with the recent launch of a significanly large site by Fantasy Interactive. The question of the day is how to integrate flash with browser functions, specifically as such:
- Enable use of the back and forward buttons in the browser to move through an all-flash site.
- Enable favorites linking to specific pages

A couple of examples can be found at:

http://www.teknision.com/ with specific example: http://www.teknision.com/siteVersion...#Site%20Design (favorites and back button functionality)

Teknision has proved that it is possible, however it does not yet work on all platforms and browsers. The ultimate challenge would be to create a system that works across various platforms and works well. What methods does anyone here know about? Anyone have specific examples?

Lets see if we can define some sort of standard for this implementation.
