Well heres the problem…

Iv got a website created in flash and on the homepage (index) in a box at the top of the page I have a blank movieclip which loads and external SWF file into which displays a random image.

On the external SWFs i have preloaders as the are images. But when you open up the website and it loads the SWF it doesnt move from the preloader…it just sits still and doesnt load the SWF…?

If I view the external SWF seperate then the preloader loads and plays…

Does any one have some help for me, it would be greatly helpful…
