Hello People,

I am using this tutorial to achieve a preloader in externally loaded swf’s. It is “kinda” working, however, when the loader is reaching 100% it is loading the page but immediately it is making a “white flash” and it stays on the white.

I dunno, but it seems like I need a stop (); action somewhere?!?!?!?! I dunno.

I am attaching the files I have already done, could someone look them through and see what is up?

Um let there be said that the laoder.swf is where the prelaoder is in. The default\_second.swf is the site the preloader is loading 😃 I guess u brainiacs will understand this anyways, but just wanned to clarify :cap:

I would really appreciate any input. Just so you know my flash ac skills are limited :ponder: .

Thanks,  
Marito
