I am trying to build a website using external .swf files through a preloader into my main website. This project is specifically for my MMA fighter information webpage.

I viewed a tutorial on preload external .swf files on [www.gotoandlearn.com](http://www.gotoandlearn.com/) and the tutorial relinquished this actionscript with details on creating a holder and preloader which I have already done.

var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();  
var mclL:Object = new Object ();  
mclL.onLoadProgress = function(target,loaded,total) {  
loader.percent.text = (Loaded/total) \* 100 + “%”;  
}  
mclL.onLoadInit = function() {  
Loader.\_visible = false;  
Loader.percent.text = “”;  
}  
mcl.addListener(mclL);  
mcl.loadClip(“Home.swf”,Holder);  
Home.onRelease = function() {  
loader.\_visible = true;  
mcl.loadClip(“Home.swf”,Holder);  
}

I placed the .swf files I wanted to load into the movie in the same folder as my main movie and its just not working. Is there a special place other than recycle bin these .swf files are supposed to be? Please help
