    checking if loadVariables is finished

    Does anyone know,

    when using the command "this.loadVariables", is there any way to set up a loop which checks if the variables have been loaded yet?

    In your txt file, make the first variable a test var named 'myVar' and make it as such, myVar=true;
    Code:
    myVay=false;
    this.loadMovie("myData.txt");
    this.onEnterFrame=function(){
      if(myVar){
         //DATA IS LOADED
         delete this.onEnterFrame;
      }
    }
    So when flash has loaded everything... The 'preloader' will end

    Check this tutorial:
    http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Utili...4983/index.php

    It uses loadVariables in connection with a php script and the site is changed when everything ok. May be it helps you.
