Hi all,

I’ve got a little prob. on my site… Everything was going great with the advanced buttons and external page transitions… But when I add a preloader the external pages no longer load!!! I need advice bad… I figure this one out… ☹

Thanks for any help!

Below is the AS:

this.onRelease = function(){  
if (\_root.currMovie == undefined) {  
\_root.currMovie = “tour”;  
\_root.container.loadMovie(“tour.swf”);  
} else if (\_root.currMovie != “tour.swf”) {  
if (\_root.container.\_currentframe\>= container.midframe) {  
\_root.currMovie = “tour”;  
\_root.container.play();  
}

- I’m assuming its something here… Like I need to tell it something like its off the \_root. now because of the preloader being on a sense before…?

if (\_root.container.\_currentframe\>= container.midframe) {
