Hi,

I created a flash website, then before publishing it, I created a percentage preloader. I uploaded the file and viewed it on my Mac through IE and everything worked fine. When The client tried viewing the site on his PC, all he got was a blank screen while the movie (appeared) to preload. Then once the browser had download the site, it continued to play. Thinking this was an error with my preloader script, I recreated it but the same thing happened, the Mac works perfectly but the PC pauses on the very first frame while it downloads everything.

The next logical step was to delete the preloader elements and insert a graphic with a script on frame 10 which jumps to the start of the site. I tested this and on the mac, it plays the graphic for 10 frames then jumps to the specified frame. When I test the same file on the PC it still pauses on a blank frame while it apears to load the site in the background.

What could be the problem?
