umm..As far as I know, you cant do that without using frames. Even if you use include or require, whenever the page is loaded, it will include the banner page again. Lets see if someone has a solution for this !

you could use ajax to load the contents of a page into a div layer, but that is about the same approach as using frames, with more work.
You could try and get fancy with some actionscript to write session or cookie data from within the flash at increments of the timeline. You could use that session/cookie data on subsequent pages to start the flash where it left off, or have it not play at all if the data is set. This would require some server side scripting and some knowledge of actionscript so that you could get the flash to interact with the script.
For what it's worth, I usually just use frames...If SEO is a concern however, you may want to avoid using frames. Another approach is to just use a static image banner on all the pages after the first.
