Hi

I am designing a website that is set in one scene. When I press a button it loads the movie clip that I want which then appears in the scene. What I need to know is how I put a preloader in each movie clip to avoid waiting a long time to load at the start of the movie (i.e. if I was to have a preloader at the start of the movie to load the whole scene). I am new to flash and would really appreciate the hel (appologis if this seems really basic question). :hangover:
