Preloader problem - attachMovie?

1

Hi,

I have a problem with a preloader that isn’t working, it works fine on other files that are loaded in the same way on the same site, the only difference with this file is a script that is at the end of the timeline which uses attachMovie to place some images… the result is that the preloader doesn’t show, there is just a wait and then the movie appears suddenly.

any ideas?? thanks :slight_smile:

this is the code that appears at the end of that movie:

// _________________ VARIABLES
// _____________________IMAGES
images = 3;
slack = 20;
imageSize = 310;

this.createEmptyMovieClip(“holder”, 2);
for (i=1; i<=images; i++) {
holder.attachMovie(“image”+i, “image”+i, i);
holder[“image”+i]._y = holder[“image”+(i-1)]._y+holder[“image”+(i-1)]._height+slack;
}

i = 1;
// _____________________SETMASK
holder.setMask(mask);
holder._x = mask._x;
holder._y = mask._y;

// _______________ F U N C T I O N S
// . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
// _____________________________Slide
changey = function (targety) { y = (y == undefined) ? holder._y : y;holder._y += y=(y+(targety-holder._y)/4)*0.7;};
slide = function (targety) { clearInterval(slideLoop);slideLoop = setInterval(this, “changey”, 30, targety);};
getImage = function (i) { oldY = (oldY == undefined) ? holder._y : oldY;slide(-holder[“image”+i]._y);up._visible = (i>1) ? true : false;down._visible = (i<images) ? true : false;};
// _____________________Button Events
up.onPress = function() {
–i;
getImage(i);
};
down.onPress = function() {
++i;
getImage(i);
};
//
//
// ____________START
getImage(1);
stop();
