previous record retrieval & tokens

This is the problem. I need to display a field from the last accessed record, regardless of time, at the beginning of the web browsing experience. I have no problem with this extraction in Filemaker Pro. The real issue is the web aspect. I cannot get the browser to pull up the working information that I need initially. The only way it works is if the user makes an entry to the database and then the calculations I have set up pass the appropriate information to the next page as a token. When a new browsing session is started up, no token can be passed because no entry has been made yet. I thought that maybe that this could be solved with CDML tags. To my knowledge, their is no CDML to do this for me. If there was a [FMP-PreviousRecord] or [FMP-LastAccessedRecord] that would be perfect. The FMPro that I am working with currently is 4.1. I would greatly appreciate any insight that can be provided.

Please disregard the previous request for information on the subject of tokens and previous record retrieval. I found a work around to the whole situation that is actually easier to use. Sorry for any inconvienence.
