Hi,

i have been dissecting the tutorial on the photo gallery + thumbnails tutorial on this.great.website 🙂

I seem to be having a problem though, ill trie to explain as good as i can. I recreated the tutorial, and everything works like a charm locally. Now i have project i was trying to implement the gallery in. I used an external swf as the gallery, the main swf loads this swf into a container. This works fine too. The problem is, the preloader function just stays at 100%, and doesnt do anything else. Strange thing is, that when i test it on my local pc, everything gets loaded as it should. Im pretty sure it has something to do with flash mx 2004 and flash pro 8, but i still dont know where to exactly start looking. Anyone who can give me a push in the right direction ? Thanks in advance already !!!

kind regards,  
Ariff
