external swf preloader issue

[matheen]

Hi all

im craeting a new flash site, to make it load faster, i decided to create diffrent movie clips and call them in onClick event.

But i have a problem, when loading an external swf file it should display the preloader first (of external swf),

Very Simple - when site loads the main preloader should appear for the main site, then when i clik on any buttons on main swf, the external swf should load with its own preloader.

Hope u understand, what exactly im looking for.

is there any simple script for this? if its there can any one suggest me where and how can i use the script?


Thanks in advance

Hi,

Try monkeyflash.com,
It's a very informative site which has helped me to sort out a few flash related problems.

You should check the path of your "bytes loaded" actionscript part of the preloader in the external swf. If you're using loadMovie into a movie clip holder for the external swf and your preloader in that movie is looking to _root for the total bytes and bytes loaded it will read the main movie as loaded.
