As brief as I can make it.
+ go to http://calscape.com/
+ click the "Trees" dynamic link. You should see a list of trees.
+ click the thumbnail or common name of the first tree. A page is
displayed specific to that tree. Note the slide show.
+ Click the 'Next Plant' link (near upper right corner). Another
plant page is displayed. Note the slide show.
+ Click the browser back button. the prior plant data is displayed
but not the prior slide show.
===============
+ I put that slide show into that page with an iframe.
+ I create the show on the fly per the specific plant we are
looking at.
+ The slide show is an older version (also php) soon to be
replaced by plant1.php or something very like it.
+ I was experimenting with system() as a means to solve the back
button problem.
===============
Is anybody still awake?
