hello people! hows our FLASH GURUS doing? hope your all fine.

Im here to ask a questions, so I will be straight to the point.

I have this layout for my simple flash movie;

Main Movie ==\>\> Home  
==\>\> Profile  
==\>\> Pictures  
==\>\> Artwork  
==\>\> Guestbook  
==\>\> News

Now, i created an animation, which i wanted to play first before the external .swf loads to the main movie. How do i do that? is it using Action Script? I know anoher way of creating it by means of copying the animation to each external .swf, but I’m sure it will delay loading co’z this it what happen to my first pages.

Anyway thanks in advance!

I’m not sure what your asking…

but I think you want to have your inital movie play and then on the last frame on the movie have the actionscript to load your external swf.

Okay, heres what it is. when you click on for instance HOME button, that animation plays first before the actual page load.  
like this one here [http://tararao.com/robwell/rw/index2.htm](http://tararao.com/robwell/rw/index2.htm)
