home tab button not behaving as expected - bug??

(ios)(v1.5) Hiya, Have created a tab layout, with button menu pages as targets. The home tab button is set to call the 'Home' page which is a button menu. BUT.... if I've hit a button on the Home menu (say gallery) & go to that page, then go to another page, then hit the 'home' TAB button, it sends me to the gallery (in this case), NOT the home page itself.... IFYKWIM...??? Any ideas? Tanx in advance ;]

David = confused. Somethings not adding up. But, I think I understand what's going on. The tabs along the bottom 'remember' where you are. This is standard iOS behavior. So, Home tab then Gallery opens a gallery. Then, another tab, like third tab. Your now looking at the third tabs home screen (buttons in your case if you have buttons for home screens on all the tabs). So, you're looking at the third tabs home screen but you don't choose anyting. Next, you tap the home tab again (the first tab). It will show you the gallery because that's where it was when you 'left it.' Get it? Another way to look at it...the tabs do not automagically go 'home' when they are tapped, they go where you left them.
