Hi guys,
I am not sure if it’s the good place to post this…
I posted a tread last week about a preloader to load and cache multiple files (swf) that are at different addresses before playing a flash page. Someone finally posted an answer, and the code is almost working perfectly. The way to make it work is by having an .html file, an .as file and a .swf loader file.
The issue is with the .as file using fileURLArray.push. i entered 10 addresses to load and cache 10 files but it’s stopping after 5 preload or caching. Any ideas why it’s only preloading 5 instead of 10 ?
