Complicated Fla design problem, preloading instances from the same file

programming flash
1

Hi ive got a problem. I have to make a flash website for my work which preloads a page every time you click the navigationmenu. So u click a button, and a page loads in (with loadingbar). My problem is, that i cant use separate movies to do this, like u usually do. I got to have the whole site in one Fla file, so i cant make separate “contentpages”/fla’s (this is very important). I thought i could work around this by selecting the export on publish options in the library, and then load the files back in when needed via actionscript. The thing is, for this i need the original Mc deleted from the movie on publish. Is there a way to do this via actionscript. Like on publish delete instance1.
Or alternatively is there a way to stall the loading of certain instances in the movie? So i can preload instances which are all in the mainmovie separately?

Need help

hi
what you’re saying is that you have to have a preload each time you chose an option? is that an obligation?

if not you can just simply do it using the frames , putting your main screen on the first frame, the second a few frames later, the basic and most used form of doing animation in flash within a unique file, you don’t need action script to do this.

by the way if you really need to see a preload you can do a mc simulating that and then put it on the begining of each screen
