Hi Everyone…

I’ve created a preloader from one of the kirupa tutorials… Everything loads fine on my machine, but once my site gets uploaded onto the web, my preloader won’t show up, and won’t load my main movie either… the window just remains blank…

my splash movie loads my \*\*preLoader.\*\*swf

//1st frm of the preloader is this script:

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

//2nd frm of the preloader is this script:

_gotoAndPlay(1);_

//3rd frm is this:

\*//load Movie Behavior  
if(this == Number(this)){  
loadMovieNum(“main\_v04.swf”,this);  
} else {  
this.loadMovie(“main\_v04.swf”);  
}

- //End Behavior

please…I would really appreciate your help! I’m so lost…:\*(

Thank you!
