New site up--needs ext swf preloader

1

hey guys check out my portolio site at

http://www.rit.edu/~ast7707/portfolio.html

also by the way can some buddy please help me out on the the main preloader code --ive been trying to figure this out for about a month or so

this is what i have to load the external swfs on the first blank frame of the movie i have –

// set up variables for movie start
_root.swfAlert = “fadeout”;
_root.swfNum = 1;
_root.containerPositionX = 162;
_root.containerPositionY = 79;
_root.fadeSpeed =18;
// here is the function that loads the movie

function loadSwf() {

// sets the current movie name to load
_root.activeSwf = "swf"+_root.swfNum+".swf";
// load the swf
loadMovie(_root.activeSwf, _root.container);
// set the x, y position
_root.container._x = _root.containerPositionX;
_root.container._y = _root.containerPositionY;

}
// load the first swf when the movie starts
loadSwf();

then on the container clip i have this code–

//this enterframe script checks the value of “swfAlert” and does something depending on the returned result

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.swfAlert == “fadeOut”) {
_root.container._alpha -= _root.fadeSpeed;
if (_root.container._alpha<=0) {
unloadMovie(_root.container);

		_root.swfAlert = "load";
	}
}
if (_root.swfAlert == "load") {
	_root.loadSwf();
	_root.swfAlert = "fadeIn";
}
if (_root.swfAlert == "fadeIn") {
	_root.container._alpha += _root.fadeSpeed;
	if (_root.container._alpha&gt;=100) {
		_root.swfAlert = "static";
	}
}

}

–this works fine
–what i want is to add is a simple preloader
all i want to have is a preloader checking if the external swfs are loaded and if they are i want the preloader to fade out

can somebody please help or guide me in the right direction
