Hello,

I’m having difficulty’s preloading inside a slide screen.

here are the files

open content.swf and click the right arrow key…  
It will go to the next slide screen were on the first frame I have

```auto
container_mc.loadMovie("preload1.swf");

```

The preload1.swf has this in it’s action layer

```auto
var l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("1.swf"));

function loop(e:ProgressEvent):void
{
    var perc:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal;
    percent.text = Math.ceil(perc*100).toString();
}

function done(e:Event):void
{
    removeChildAt(0);
    percent = null;
    addChild(l);
}

```

I used this tutorial for that

1.swf is what I want to load there but i don’t understand why it wont??

Even if you can’t help completely I would love to here ideas on what I can do!! 🙂

thankyou,
