I have a SWF movie inside of a jQuery UI tab, and the problem I'm having is that the SWF gets reloaded everytime I click away from the tab, onto another tab, and then click back. I can inspect the DOM and see that the div containing the SWF is still in the DOM when I click away, so I don't know why this it seems to reload it when I click back to the tab.

I added the following CSS rules to try to prevent the display being set to: none, but the Flash movie is still reloading:

.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-hide {
    display: block !important;
    position: absolute;
    left: -10000px;
}
