The Movie Im trying to load has a pre-loader… which worked fine before specifying a target… (.swf containing PLAY STOP buttons with looped audio track)

working: [http://www.kv5.co.uk/templates/pulse/index.html](http://www.kv5.co.uk/templates/pulse/index.html)

Not working : [http://homepage.ntlworld.com/paul.barrett2/zzzz.html](http://homepage.ntlworld.com/paul.barrett2/zzzz.html)

In the ‘NOT WORKING LINK’ the MC still loads and works but the preloader just sits there… till the MC is loaded (No Load Progression Shown)

This is the AS Im using : (from [kirupa.com](http://kirupa.com))

\_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, 1);  
loadMovie(“sound.swf”, “container”);  
container.\_x = -200;  
container.\_y = 50;  
stop();

Thankyou in advance,
