Probably been asked before but I searched and searched and could not find the answer to my preloader question/problem…

I’m just trying to add a percentage read out along with the loading bar (in the transition)… can someone lead me to a thread or post a script for this? tanx 😉

the as im using right now is the script from the tutorial.

loading.\_xscale = 0;  
loading.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.\_xscale = 100\*\_parent.content.getBytesLoaded()/\_parent.content.getBytesTotal();  
};  
loadMovie(\_root.section, \_root.content);  
stop();
