I'm working on a site for a funeral home. For the intro I'm loading an external movie with a text effect. Can I set the preloader to wait for the external movie (swf) to load? So far, it doesn't load until it get's to Scene1 Frame One and then it lags behind.
Thanks for any help...
I am also wondering about preloaders - you seem to at least know something about them. can or did you find anything out? I am wanting to do a preloader for an internal "web site" presentation. I don't understand how to preload while the real movie is loading.
I hope this PreLoader Question is a dumb one so you guys will know the answer.
ok question, but not the right place to ask, am moving to general help forum.
cheers,

Frame1.
load movie(swf,1)
frame 2.
If (done eq "true")
go to and Play("start")
frame 3.
go to and Play (2)
last frame of swf on level1
Begin tell target ("_level0")
set variable: "done" = "true"
End tell target

Flash couldnt recognise the syntax above! (even with ;s added..!)
Also does level1 just mean the first level in the timeline?
Any help muchly appreciated!!

Does it work for SWFX-exported .swf files where you cant add actionscript? (ie is it possible to preload external .swf files using only actionscript in the main .swf?)
Thx in advance
