Ok, If anyone can help. In the Main.fla is a 700x800 stage. On frame 2 I put in actionscript

loadMovieNum(“banner\_banner.swf”, 1);  
stop();

the banner.swf is from another fla called banner.fla. In the banner.fla, I put in a preloader in the beginning which works fine in the banner.fla. The actionscript for the preloader is

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
loaded = \_parent.getBytesLoaded();  
total = \_parent.getBytesTotal();  
progress = Math.round((loaded/total)\*100);  
loaderInfo = Math.round(loaded/1000) + " k / " + Math.round(total/1000) + " k ";  
if (loaded == total) {  
\_parent.nextFrame();  
}  
}

The main problem is that when I load the banner.swf in the main.fla, the preloader doesnt work. it just has a quick “0/0” and thats it. Even if I put show stream.

Can anyone help this mess??  
Thank you.I:-)

Na, if I put ‘‘show streaming’’ while I test the movie than the preloader works on the banner.fla. But when I try to load it in the main.fla the preloader doesnt work, even if I put ‘‘show streaming’’
