Hey guys, this seems like an easy one but I’ve tried a few times and it just does not want to work.

I’m working on [http://www.SnapyPhoto.com](http://www.SnapyPhoto.com) and I have 1 main page that loads external SWF pages. In the past I have had preloaders on the external page that loads. This time I want to make the preloader on the main page. But when the variables change local to global it kicks my \*\*\*! Any thoughts? Also in the var part of a textbox can I put \_global.percentDone as opposed to just percentDone?
