Thanks for all of your response, it seems the problem was the
onLoadInit event needed to be passed using the Delegate Class, rather
than an inline function:
loadListener.onLoadInit = Delegate.create(this, mcLoaded);
Just in case this class is of any use to anyone here's my finished
version.
Many thanks for everyone's suggestions, have a good weekend :)

Thanks for your quick reply Glen, thing is, I want to allow the
class to
trigger different functions that are passed to it and also to monitor
the progress of a number of SWFs. Sorry if I'm missing something here.
Cheers,

Hi,
Why don't you just make your class the listener for the
MovieClipLoader and then implement the functions in your class?
class LoadChecker {
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader;
function LoadChecker() {
mcLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader.addListener(this);
}
function myLoader(str, mc) {
//...
mcLoader.loadClip(str, mc);
}
function onLoadInit(mc...) {
trace("loaded mc " + mc) ;
//...doStuff.
mcLoaded(mc);
}
function onLoadError(mc...) {
trace("oops, there was an error ");
//...carry on?
}
function mcLoaded(mc) {
//...
}
}
Put a trace in your onLoadInit function and also implement the
onLoadError function for the listener so you can see if they are
called - you can also stub out the other functions for
MovieClipLoader
listeners and put traces in those to make sure it starts loading,
etc.

Hiya, I've written a class that will load multiple SWFs and then
call
a passed function when complete. My problem is that when all the
movies have downloaded the passed function won't fire. If anyone
could help me figure this that would be really helpful.Cheers, Ali
