i got this script out of a flash MX book but it doesnt seem to be working…im trying to create a preloader with a simple status bar that loads a scene within the same file. the scene does end up loading…but the status bar just says “100% completed” the whole time its loading the scene. is there a flaw in the script or an i doing something else wrong?

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {  
loaded = \_root.getBytesLoaded();  
total = \_root.getBytesLoaded();  
framesLoaded = Math.ceil((loaded/total)\*100);  
gotoAndStop(framesLoaded);  
status.text = framesLoaded+" % COMPLETED";  
if (framesLoaded\>=90) {  
nextScene();  
}  
}
