Can I jump to a particular page using the back button in the control bar?

I have created a Captivate file using a PowerPoint file. Slide 9 contains a menu. Each menu item opens up a series of pages (contained in slide 10-21). When the last topic on the menu page has been explore, the course navigates from the menu on Slide 9 to a Knowledge Check slide (slide 22). However, if once I'm on Slide 22, when I click the Back button in the control panel, I get sent to the last slide in the last topic (slide 21). I want to go back to the menu on slide 9. Is there a way change the navigation for the Back button for just slide 22? Thanks!

This should work for HTML5, it can be done for swf also. Place the script in the head of the index.html.

var interfaceObj, eventEmitterObj;

window.addEventListener( "moduleReadyEvent", function( e )
{
interfaceObj = e.Data;
eventEmitterObj = interfaceObj.getEventEmitter();
initializeEventListeners();
});

function initializeEventListeners()
{
if ( interfaceObj )
{
     if ( eventEmitterObj )
{
         eventEmitterObj.addEventListener( "CPAPI_SLIDEENTER", function( e )
   {
    if ( window.cpInfoCurrentSlide == 21 && window.cpInfoLastVisitedSlide == 21 )
    {
     window.cpCmndGotoSlide = 8;
    }
            });
}
}
}

This will not be possible (unless you have a very good programmer) to realize this goal with the default playbar at all. Use custom navigation buttons. Control panel (normally labeled 'playbar') doesn't allow that kind of control.
