Export the Manipulate as Flash.  The Flash export will run through the 
Manipulate controls, or follow any bookmarks you've set using the "Add to 
Bookmarks" item in the popup menu on the upper right-hand side of the 
Manipulate.

This is exactly how the Flash animations on http://demonstrations.wolfram.com 
are done, incidentally.

Search the help system for SWF (swf is the filename extension of Flash files) 
for more information.
