Here's a method for creating buttons that use an array to simulate a navigation through a history array, without using frame labels, of html codes.

Code for" Back" button:

on (press) {
	_root.fwdStack.push(_root._currentFrame);
	if (_root.navStack.length>1) {
		recentFrame = _root.navStack.pop();
		previousFrame = _root.navStack.pop();
		gotoAndStop(previousFrame);
	}
}

Code for "Forward" buttons:

on (press) {
	if (_root.fwdStack.length>0) {
		recentFrame = _root.fwdStack.pop();
		gotoAndStop(recentFrame);
	}
}

On each frame:

_root.navStack.push(_root._currentFrame);

On actions frame:

stop();
navStack = [];
fwdStack = [];

_

Enjoy.
