ppl,

heres the scenario....

i load a main "shell" moive.

once a button in the shell is clicked, i use the loadmovie command to load an external swf.

i load this swf into a blank movieclip called
"dummy".

i can do a preloader in teh swf file, but this doesnt paly until that swf file has loaded, and so defeats the object.

i want to be able, in the blank movie clip, to create a prelaoder which will play instantly in the movie shell, and play until the imported swf file has loaded.

please could you help with the code ??


thanks

ben
