Hey my little fluffy bunny, I've never noticed that pre-loader problem to be honest, I know when checking streaming in the Flash IDE it gives funny results...strange

As to loading times, is that right ( ie even though compressed and therefore a smaller file it doesn't load any quicker ) ?
I've always assumed it would be so never even thought about it.

As to pre-loader code I just run it in a little progress bar mc and convert it to a percentage, eg.
code:


percent = Math.floor((_parent.getBytesLoaded()/_parent.getBytesTotal())*100);

if(percent==100){

All done...

}

I'm with you Tom, compression is just too sexy not to use. It seems to hit text really well as well, saves going mental and having to tokenise it for compression.

Squize.
