Hi,

Most flash sites have the loading bar when you first enter the site, (Loading… 10%, 30%, etc…) and when it hits 100% of course the webpage loads, how do you do this? Sorry I am fairly new with flash, all I want is a normal rectangle bar that is white and set on a black background, and as the percentage counts up the rectangle fills up to be all white and the page loads then. Anyone have tutorials?
