[MX] Someone help!

heres the set-up:

i am making a site with transitions that loads external .swf files(exactly like the tutorial).

after the first part of the transition plays it uses:

loadMovie(_root.section, _root.content);

which obviosly loads the pre-defined swf files.

this is not the problem, I want to add a preloader to this and i succesfully did but its not loading the movie its just loading the frames. heres the code which is loacated in the actions of the loader movieclip:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
loading = _parent.getBytesLoaded();
total = _parent.getBytesTotal();
percent -= (percent-((loading/total)100)).25;
per = int(percent);
percentage = per+"%";
loadBar._width = per;
if (percent>99) {
_parent.gotoAndStop(9);
}
}

So i guess my questions is should i add the load movie code before this code or what… how do i make this apply to loading the actuall external swf files??

im not great with actionscript obviously but hopefully one of you really nice people can help me out.

I think the you should put the preloader on each of the SWF files that you want to load. Like for example you have the main.swf file and you want to load home.swf and contact.swf to main.swf, instead of making a preloader on main.swf for contact.swf and home.swf, make the preloader for home.swf on home.swf and the preloader on contact.swf on contact.swf. :stuck_out_tongue:

ya thats what i was leaning towards but i wanted to know if this way was possible…

thanks for the input.

Yes it is possible
