I'm seeing something weird happen with the flash movie I'm working on.

One of the first things the movie does is load another movie.  The
movie it's loading has the potential of being pretty large, so I
created a simple overlay on the movie's UI that displays a Loading
message along with a % completed.  The overlay is created to have the
same size as the Stage.

Here's the weird thing.  Sometimes when I load the movie the overlay
doesn't display, due to Stage.width and Stage.height both being 0.
One of my coworkers suggested moving everything to the second frame,
but that didn't help.

Digging some more I found that if I access Stage.width and
Stage.height from code in the frame itself (in the FLA) it worked
correctly, but accessing it from an .AS file fails.  Has anyone seen
this before?

I've changed my code to pass in the Stage.width and Stage.height to
the function being called in the .AS file, which will fix this
particular problem, but there are other places in the code that Stage
is used, and I worry that they may also have problems.
