alright, i am at my wit’s end with this, so i will take any help that i can get.

i am putting a preloader in a seperate scene in my flash movie.  
for some goofy reason, it will go to the preloader and get to lik 99% and stop, and will not proceed to the next frame. i have tired EVERYTHING that i know to make it work, but it will not.

here’s my code for the preloader that i am using:

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.gotoAndPlay(“Scene 2”, 16);  
}  
}

it is placed on a moive clip that retains all the text and graphics for the preloader.

like i said the only thing that won’t work is that it will not proceed to the next frame.

i have replaced the \_parent, to \_root. i have used frame labels instead of (“Scene 2”, 16). i have no idea what else to do.

if anyone has anything, i will be VERY happy.

thanks all very much!
