accessing variables from a parent movie

[mcmcom]

hi all,
i am trying to make a basic preloader for an AS3 site. I followed the tutorial on this site (Preloading actionscript 3 the easy way) where its similar to AS 2 - create a Preloader movie and load the whole .swf into it.

only problem is i need some variables that i pass to the movie via QueryString parameters in the Object and embed tags. Is there any way to get this in my loaded movie?

i have tried
root.loaderInfo.parameters
and
stage.loaderInfo.parameters
and
parent.loaderInfo.parameters

none of them work.
any ideas? Can i create a variable in the prelaoder and just go "parent.thevariable" ? or does parent even work when something is loaded into a loader?

thanks in advance,
mcm

i solved it.
for anyone who cares:

when you load your new movie via the Loader you just pass the QueryString variable you got from loaderInfo.parameters in the path for your URL Request.

hth,
