I am really trying to have my preloader work, with a site that is 100% AS. the
entire site resides either in classes or as on the first frame. there has got
to be some way to preload a site, with a single function that is entirely
dynamic. this is what i have, but it will not even appear on the screen. no
errors .. ideas would be great....
// -------------------------
// preloader
function preloadMe() {
// stop movie from playing
//stop();
// reference to _root
ref = _root;
// create the preloader mc
ref.createEmptyMovieClip("preloader_mc", ref.getNextHighestDepth() );
// create the preloader mc progress text
ref.preloader_mc.createTextField("preloader_txt", ref.getNextHighestDepth, 0,
0, 200, 10);
with (ref.preloader_mc.preloader_txt) {
embedFonts = true;
selectable = false;
setNewTextFormat(format1_fmt);
text = "LOADING SITE: 00"
};
// place preloader text in center of stage
ref.preloader_mc._x = (Stage.width/2) -
(ref.preloader_mc.preloader_txt._width/2);
ref.preloader_mc._y = (Stage.height/2) -
(ref.preloader_mc.preloader_txt._height/2);
ref.onEnterFrame = function() {
tBytes = ref.getBytesTotal();
bLoaded = ref.getBytesLoaded();
percent = Math.round((bLoaded/tBytes)*100);
// keep two places if percent is under 10, ie: 03
if (percent < 10) {
percentTxt = "LOADING SITE: 0" + percent;
} else {
percentTxt = "LOADING SITE: " + percent;
}
// if this movie is not fully loaded, then display percent loaded
if (bLoaded < tBytes) {
ref.preloader_mc.preloader_txt.text = percentTxt;
// otherwise, delete the preloader_mc, and the textField, then play movie
} else {
ref.preloader_mc.removeMovieClip();
ref.preloader_mc.preloader_txt.removeTextField();
play();
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
};
};
// -------------------------
//makeContent();
//makeIt();
//alot(5);
//trace(getDepth(_root.ellipse_0));
preloadMe();
