I have been making my preloader with this tutorial on kirupa. [URL=“kirupa.com - Percentage Preloader with Load Bar”]
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/percentagepreloader.htm
Ive made it precisely to the tutorial. Its for a website im working on.
The problem is that it apears with a blank white box for a while, and this is when the flash is being loaded, instead of letting my preloader do it. I am assuming that the host assumes the content wouldnt load itself, so it chooses to load it for it for it.
In the first actions frame I have this:
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
this.loadBar._width = getPercent*100;
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}
In the second I have this:
[COLOR=red][SIZE=2]this.gotoAndPlay(1)[/SIZE][/COLOR]
EXAMPLES:
This is an earlier version, but it shows what im talking about.

This is the latest version, and if your internet connection is so fast you didnt catch the above one, you should see this.

In the first example, it did go to the preloader, but this preloader required you to press Play. And most of it was already loaded by the time you see it.
