Hi I’m new to actionscript. I downloaded this preloader [http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/preloader\_print.html](http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/preloader_print.html) which uses a class? (seperate .as file)

Once I’ve published it, the html page works perfectly on my computer, but when I put it on the net, all I get is a black (bg colour) page. Is there something obvious that I’m missing? thanks…
