preloader

[MaMoDevil]

hi...
i am facing another problem now....i looked at the preloader tutorial....and i made one of my own....but i don't know how to put it into my flash files....so do i put it in the project files....or it's just another loadmovie thingy?

Argh....I think you are WAY OFF....put it in the main time line or on the movie. Check out a couple more tutorials on paths and stuff like that.

how do i know that the preloader is working or not?

[Flash Gordon]

upload it and test it.

i followed the tutorial from this link...
http://www.actionscript.org/tutorial...er/index.shtml

and the percentage bar is not loading...or in another word....it's stayed at 0%....

post code...from your fla and not the tutorial. Copy and paste it directly in here and make sure to use the AS tags

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
        loading = _parent.getBytesLoaded();
        total = _parent.getBytesTotal();
        percent -= (percent-((loading/total)*100))*.25;
        per = int(percent);
        percentage = per+"%";
        loadBar._width = per;
        if (percent>99) {
                _parent.gotoAndStop(2);
        }
}

i just copy and paste the code from the tutorial....
