Ok I went to the tutorial and did everything I was told. The only thing is when I actually put the movie (swf) onto my website it doesnt fade. it’s just the text and it sits there. what do i need to do?

also how do i make a preloader work…especially one like this [\<http://www.jonezetta.com](http://www.jonezetta.com)\> with the mask and stuff
