hey,  
i am having a hard time getting my preloader to work. here is the syntax:  
loaded\_bytes=getBytesLoaded();  
total\_bytes=getBytesTotal();  
percent\_done= int((loaded\_bytes/total\_bytes)\*100);  
loaderBar.gotoAndPlay (percent\_done);  
ifFrameLoaded(“Scene 1”, 50) {  
gotoAndPlay(“Scene 1”, 1);  
}

now when i preview it and view the streaming it works, but when i post it online, i can’t see the bar or stats at all. can someone tell me what is going on?

thanks.

ifFramesLoaded is like dead I think… Try something like this…

```auto
loaded_bytes=getBytesLoaded();
total_bytes=getBytesTotal();
percent_done= int((loaded_bytes/total_bytes)*100);
loaderBar.gotoAndPlay (percent_done);
if (loaded_bytes == total_bytes) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 1);
}

```
