I’m using a preloader with graphic load bar and percent text with the below script (found on this great site!). I have a large flash movie and I’d like to go to frame 3 at 50 percent bytes loaded (while the rest loads in background). I’ve tried a number of variables for 50 percent, but load bar continues to load and stops at frame 2. I’m new to flash script, any help would be greatly appreciated.

bytes\_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());  
bytes\_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());  
getPercent = bytes\_loaded/bytes\_total;  
this.loadBar.\_width = getPercent_200;  
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent_100)+"%";  
if (bytes\_loaded == bytes\_total) {  
this.gotoAndPlay(3);  
}

Using Flash MX Version 6.  
Thank you very much.
