Preloader Question

Howdy.

I created a preloader for a page (let’s call it PAGE5). The preloader was one from the tutorials here on Kirupa. When I play the SWF file, I don’t see the preloader process, just the next frame of animation. In other words, it skips the preloader frame and jumps to the main animation. Now, if I view it Show Streaming I will see both the preloader process and the main animation.

Also, I have a main content page that in which the user will click on a button and it will play PAGE5, the page with the preloader. When I test the main content page out and click on the PAGE5 button, it skips the preloader process and jumps to the main animation.

Is this how will be appear when I upload these files to my server? I want the user to click on the PAGE5 button and see the entire preloader process before the main animation begins.

Thank you.
