[flexcoders] Is there a way to pass a parameter into my preloader?

[luvfotography]

I've created a preloader class, and is there a way to pass a parameter into my 
preloader?



Here is my application tag:

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";  
                 applicationComplete="appInit()"  
                 layout="absolute"  
                 preloader="com.mysite.preloader.SSProgressBarNoWait"
                 >

thanks,
