[font=Arial][size=3]okay… i’ve got a movie with a text scroller which calls on text from an html page. _ **“of course”** _ it was working fine, till i decided to add a preloader to it. i selected all the frames in the movie, and moved them over 1 frame, to make room for the preloader component. that’s where i seem to be running into the problem… when i test it at this point _(before the preloader has even been dropped into the movie)_ the text no longer shows up. what am i doing wrong?[/size][/font]

[size=3][font=Arial]ooh… [/font][[font=Arial][color=blue]i got the text scroller from here. this page shows all the code associated with the scroller.[/color][/font]](http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Interactivity/Useability/Make_you-Vera_Fle-750/more6.php)[font=Arial] the only real note-worthy change i’ve made to the code, is that mine calls an html page for the text, like so: [/font][/size][font=Arial][size=3] [/size][/font]
