1) You could do the confirm in Flash with a button.

2) If you want to use a confirm box I would set up a 2 frame Frameset

with the second one an invisible Frame. In the Invisible Frame put You

JavaScript that would open the confirm buttons. If yes then load the

Main Window with the Flash Content.

At the end of each flash Movie you would load a new page (with Get URL)

into the Invisible Frame that would display a new Confirm Box and direct

the browser to load the next Flash page into Main if Confirm is yes. 

3) You could do a more smooth transistion with Load Movie and FSCommand

as in #2 but browsers would be limited to those that handle FSCommand.
