[help] photo loading

[zervell]

As all of you know having a loading bar in your sites is a must. so my problem is how can i get the total number of bytes loaded from a gif,tiff,bmp,"....(picture files). I know how to upload them into the site using the loadmovie command ,but how can I get the file's size and how much of it has been loaded?

You can use a normal preloader, but you have to target the movieclip you are loading into instead of the _root.

Like...

containerMC.getBytesLoaded()

This question has been asked a lot.... try and make a search on this board.

You can only dynamically load non-progressive .jpgs... No other format!
