I can’t seem to wrap my head around this preLoader thing. I have an intro with a preLoader that works fine, after you click the enter button it goes to a new url which is the main navigation page with the EXACT preLoader on it but it just sits there with a full bar and no % numbers moving, how is that possible? Here is my code on frame 1 and 2, remember they are EXACTLY the same on both fla’s. If you want my fla’s go to [http://www.nucklewebdesign.com/dloads/](http://www.nucklewebdesign.com/dloads/)  
if you want to see the preLoader working and not working go to  
[http://www.nucklewebdesign.com/moving/](http://www.nucklewebdesign.com/moving/)  
if you don’t have Flash Player 8 the enter button is beside the spinning key.

frame 1:  
var amountLoaded:Number = \_root.getBytesLoaded()/\_root.getBytesTotal();  
bar\_mc.\_width = amountLoaded \* 200;  
loadText.text = Math.round(amountLoaded \* 100);

frame 2:  
if(\_root.getBytesLoaded() == \_root.getBytesTotal()) {  
gotoAndPlay(3);  
}

else {  
gotoAndPlay(1);  
}
