-------------------------------------- script -------------------------

MovieClip.prototype.fadeIn = function() {  
this.onEnterFrame = function() {  
if (this.\_alpha\<100) {  
this.\_alpha += 10;  
} else {  
delete this.onEnterFrame;  
}  
};  
};  
bar.\_visible = false;  
border.\_visible = false;  
var empty = this.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, “100”);  
empty.\_x = 0;  
empty.\_y = 0;  
my\_mc = new MovieClipLoader();  
preload = new Object();  
my\_mc.addListener(preload);  
preload.onLoadStart = function(targetMC) {  
trace("started loading "+targetMC);  
container.\_alpha = 0;  
bar.\_visible = true;  
border.\_visible = true;  
pText.\_visible = true;  
};  
preload.onLoadProgress = function(targetMC, lBytes, tBytes) {  
bar.\_width = (lBytes/tBytes)\*100;  
pText.text = “% “+Math.round((lBytes/tBytes)\*100);  
};  
preload.onLoadComplete = function(targetMC) {  
container.fadeIn();  
border.\_visible = false;  
bar.\_visible = false;  
dText.\_visible = false;  
trace(targetMC+” finished”);  
};
