Continuing screen (game) when returning from another screen

[Col_Boogie]

I wrote a game. One time in the middle of the game I went to another site. When I returned to the game instead of continuing where the game left off the browser reloaded the html. It took awhile but I was able to give the user a choice whether to resume the game or start over. Idea:  Add a way to allow the html to continue or restart when control is returned. Suggestions: Best - add a JAVASCRIPT variable to turn on resume the html (at start of game) or off (after game ended). Second best - add a Meta statement that says resume where left off on return to html. Worst - add a browser setting that the user can change (user may not know about the setting and it would work only on Firefox). The other two solutions probably would not work with other browsers until the standards are changed.
