When the loading bar is a different movie

Hey folks,

I was a student designer circa action script 2 times, and I’ve grown quite comfortable with it. I was hesitant to switch over, but part of our jobs is staying up with the current technologies.

I’m working on action script 3, and it is quite a new experience to say the least.

I was working on making a loading bar for my portfolio website, which can be seen here

I read a tutorial, the coding made sense to me. I created a seperate .swf that plays while my main movie loads.

what was not explained was, when implementing via dreamweaver, what to do. I have two .swf’s, one loadbar swf and the main swf. How do I go about linking the two .swf’s so they work in unison? thanks for any advice
