Problems with the preloader

[joca_hdj]

Hi guys,

Like i said in the title, i am really having trouble with preloader.To illustrate it to you:
Visit this page(it's without preloader) and click on United Kingdom or Poland.

Works fine!

Now try the same here:

http://craftofpiano.com/lab/members4.html

Click on the Uk or Poland again.

Nothing happens, or movie got stuck on 100% and won't play.

Can somebody tell me why is it happening?

I tryed various things, like creating an extra frame on the begging of the move.Nothing helped!

KM. ver. 6.00

Anybody please?! I can't continue my work on this project until i sort this out.

I could be wrong but I'm not sure you can use preloader inside another movie like that. You can use MovieclipLoader for that though as it provides events and feedback.

[joca_hdj]

no, i am not using preloader inside another movie clip.This is preloader for the main movie only.And for some reason it shows up again when i click another movie clip with no reason.I have no idea why is it happening?Is it a bug or something?

The other result is got is when gradient bar and text message as a preloader.
then, when you click on UK, nothing happens, like there is no movie clip or AS assigned to it.

I can provide you fun file if you want.Also my swf file is 550 kb.

Post the fun for the main swf and I'll sort it.

Thanks Stoke,

Let me know if you need other files too!

[Stoke Laurie]

Hi, I'm not able to test it for you, bacause I haven't all the files, but what I think you need to do is add another copy of frame 1, make it frame 2, and put all your actionscript and the stop on that frame. Then apply your pre-loader. Hope that works, let me know.

[joca_hdj]

No , nothing!
But an interesting idea came to my mind now.
UK is a movie clip.What if i turn it into a bttn and assign actions via interface?
not to script it!
I ll let you know what i did!
Thanks for being here for me !

[joca_hdj]

Oh, yeah!!!!
i put: go to frame action on the UK(bttn) and also a lil AS like this:
on(release){
cont.loadMovie("engleska.swf");
}

Runs like a champ!
I am still wondering , why didn't it work when UK was movieclip, controled by AS?

[Stoke Laurie]

Brilliant that you got it working, well done mate, by the way the UK is controlled by a Queen, its the US thats controlled by an ASS!

[joca_hdj]

Indeed! Thanks! See you!
