yup - yet another post on the famous XML gallery by scotty 😉

I only found one post about this subject searching the forum, and it concers Flash MX - and I coundent quite get the code to work properly in MX 2004:

> **[Loading images all at once - xml Photo Gallery](https://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=93050)**

The thing is, that I’m trying to build a multiple preloader for the gallery, so instead of the images being loaded each time the user clicks the next button - the images should start loading upon entering the gallery. So when I’m looking at the first image, I would like the others images to be loaded in “behind”, so I don’t have to wait on the next image to load each time…

I suck when it comes to preloaders - so if anyone could point me in the right direction, I would be very glad. 😃
