preloader if statement button visible trouble

[CoinOperatedBoy]

Good day all,

im new, and new to flash and actionscript. i wont pretend i know anything about it, coz to be honest i know next to nothing about actionscript. so heres my problem:

i have a preloader that i want so that when its finished loading it shows a button so the user can continue.
so far i have this code on my preloader movie:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
        loading = _parent.getBytesLoaded();
        total = _parent.getBytesTotal();
        percent -= (percent-((loading/total)*100))*.25;
        per = int(percent);
        percentage = per+"%";
        if (percent>99) {
                _root.continue_btn._visible = "false");
        }

i have it set to make the button invisible but thats just so i can find out when the code is actually working, i need it to make the button visible.

also i need the button to be invisible to start with.

any help would really be appreicated.

thanks.

Maybe this would help:

PHP Code:

onClipEvent (load) {
    _root.continue_btn._visible = false;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    loading = _parent.getBytesLoaded();
    total = _parent.getBytesTotal();
    percent = (loading/total)*100;
    per = int(percent);
    percentage = per+"%";
    if (percent>99) {
        _root.continue_btn._visible = true;
    }
}
