I have just build a simple (prototype) web site in Flash that has a base page on layer 0, I then I load subsequent swf files on layer 1 (exploiting the transparancy of layer 1, using loadMovieNum() )
It’s at http://www.freewebs.com/luxgud
Sometime ago, I build a site that loaded swf files into a container movie clip using loadMovie() and this worked quite well.
I havn’t been using Flash much recently and I have forgotten such a lot.
Can somebody please remind me why we have two methods that seem to do the same thing (as far as web pages are concerned) and which is best or the "professional " way to do it.
Finally, pre-loading; with the site that I am testing at the moment, I have to wait whilst the swf file loads. This will become worse when more conten is added. Could you advise me on the best approach for the methods mentioned above.
Thank you
