How can I add a text preloader to this code?

[papalazarou78]

Hi

I've been working on a site where swf's are loaded into main movie with transitions between the sections. I have the following code on the mcContainer...

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (!loaded && this._url != _root._url) {
if (this.getBytesLoaded() == this.getBytesTotal()) {
loaded = true;
_root.transition.gotoAndPlay("opening");
}
}
}

How can I add a text percentage preloader into this code?

Any help will be greatly received

Thanks
Wayne

After a quick Google I came up with this link.

Thanks for the reply. I'm still quite new to AS, and I have done a few sites with preloaders along the lines of the one in the link you supplied. But for this site I'm doing, I need something that will work with the existing code for loading the swf files, and I can't seem to add in code from other pre-loaders without either getting errors or effecting the loading of the swfs. If it helps, I have the files uploaded here;

What errors do you get?

[papalazarou78]

The errors are from copying and pasting lines of text from another preloader into the wrong place. I don't remember the exact errors, but when I try to correct them (by trying to either add or take away ( or } ) I end up with more errors. I am still a beginner to AS, and usually work by using code from tutorials or forums and trying to piece them together, which has got me so-far, but I think I need to learn the basics of AS, so that things like this don't throw me. Think I will buy one of those 'learn actionscript in 24hrs' book :)
