but since it’s now a preloader issue, I thought it might be better to have it’s own thread.

See attached code.

\*\* Problem:\*\* preloader will not display load progress while movie is loading. Movie will load completely but not display the “loading” text or percentage progress.

online link to see what I mean… [http://home.earthlink.net/~cnlsn/test.htm](http://home.earthlink.net/~cnlsn/test.htm)

I put a large pic in the online swf to make the load issue apparent.

\*\* Question:\*\* How can I get the preloader to work properly?

I think the issue may have something to do with a conflict between the preloader code on frame 1 and the menu code on frame 3, but I need some help on this one.

Thanks.
