Hey people! It’s stumped me for so long, and i can’t find the scripting anywhere… How do you get a preloader to also include more than one external .swf file Eg. you have a main body [main.swf ~ with the pre-loader for itself and for external content] and several key files like, ‘ **home.swf** ’ ‘ **home\_bg.swf** ’ _& say external text_ ‘ **grab\_news.php** ’ When the intro is done, the loader is called and then pops up on the screen, so ok, how do i get **loader.swf** to load **home.swf** , **home\_bg.swf** and **grab\_news.php** all in one without it only loading hame and the other just load after when **home.swf** has so that they come up at different times… does anyone get what i mean? A good example would be the macromedia [adobe now]… exchange site, where there is that rotating… thing… and that’s **loader.swf** , and its there to show that other things are loading… _Thank you in advanced every one_! :thumb: Makeitloud. :cowbell:
