How to make notification intent resume rather than making a new intent?

What i have here is a simple webview activity that when loaded it auto displays an ongoing notification. The idea is that people can navigate away from this activity and quickly access it again from any screen they want by pulling down the drop down menu and selecting it. Then when they want they can just close the notification by hitting the menu button and hitting exit and then the notification clears. This all works fine. However, when the notification is pressed it starts a new instance of the activity. What would i have to change to make it see if the activity has not already been destroyed and i can just call that instance back(resume it) and therefore not needing to load it again and won't need to add another activity to my stack. Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just to be sure i have it correct, is this what you were suggesting?

I was a little worried about this line,

PendingIntent.getActivity(Chat.this, 0, notifyIntent, SIMPLE_NOTFICATION_ID);

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { 
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.chat);

    mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager)getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

    final Notification notifyDetails = new Notification(R.drawable.chat_notification,"Chat Started",System.currentTimeMillis());

    notifyDetails.flags |= Notification.FLAG_ONGOING_EVENT;


    Context context = getApplicationContext();

    CharSequence contentTitle = "Chat";
    CharSequence contentText = "Press to return to chat";

    Intent notifyIntent = new Intent(context, Chat.class);

    PendingIntent intent =
    PendingIntent.getActivity(Chat.this, 0, notifyIntent, SIMPLE_NOTFICATION_ID);
    notifyDetails.setLatestEventInfo(context, contentTitle, contentText, intent);
    notifyIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);

    mNotificationManager.notify(SIMPLE_NOTFICATION_ID, notifyDetails);


    CookieSyncManager.createInstance(this);
    CookieSyncManager.getInstance().startSync();
    webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webviewchat);
    webview.setWebViewClient(new chatClient());
    webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    webview.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
    webview.loadUrl("http://google.com");

    progressBar = ProgressDialog.show(Chat.this, "", "Loading Chat...");        
}
