Wise codemonkeys,
I’m looking for a way to determine the size of an external file before I load it via movieClipLoader. I’m aware that you can get this information via any of the listener events associated with MCLs, I’ve tried going that route and discovered that I need to find out the file size before the load starts. Basicly I have to tally the total file size of 100ish images for a preloader and using a listener means that some images start loading and reporting progress before all of them have reported their total size, resulting in inaccurate progress stats. I’m hoping there’s some AS code I’ve never heard of that will work, but I’m open to php or javascript solutions if they’re at all practical. Thanx.
