Ok say i have page 1 and page 2.
page 1 is like an intro page, page 2 is content page
i want people to ALWAYS view page one first, so does anybody know any way to "force" them to do so? like if someone bookmarks page 2 can i have a javascript in there to see that they didnt come from page 1 whenever they visit and therefore forcibly redirected without even seeing page 2 (or at least staying on page 2)

thanks in advance for any help!

Here is an idea..
use cookies and set a cookie value in the first page and check that value in all of the subsequent pages.
now if cookie does not have that value just redirect them to the first page...
