hey im just thinking for my site  
when im making a prelaoder in between the different topics like swithchuing from the home to news section… where should i place the prelaoder on the home or on the news (the one thats loading) and then here comes the choices

_IF_ the preloader is in the home section:

do i put the preloader in the on (press or release) tags then _when_ its still in the on (press or release) tags do i run the loadMovie command and all that then finish on (press or release) tags or:

_IF_ the preloader is on the news section (the ones thats loading):

do i put th preloader code on the first frame then on the second (and so on) frame is the rest of the clip (or section if you may call it that)?

please help!!
