flash actionscript: Hi - I was wondering if anyone could help me

Basically I have different components within a flash file, and i either jump
to different scenes or frames for the 'next question' of the web form.
however, when going back to the previous questions, the components aren't
cached or 'remembered'. What kind of actionscript can I put in there; like
some kind of PHP or adding new variables- I'm not fluent in actionscript at all
so would appreciate anyone's help. thanks!

Some variables, preferably on the _root level, should do it. You probably could
assign them directly to the components' values (depending on what components
you use... e.g. <myTextField1.variable = "_root.textVar1";>), as long as the
components don't get re-used in later frames. Otherwise assign the values of
the components to variables if the "next" button is pressed.
