A couple months back I posted a question about a problem I was having with
preloadNetThing. My dcr was working fine off the local drive, but when I
put it up on the Web, I was getting a flurry of "Script Errors."
I know now what the problem was. It wasn't preloadNetThing at all. I was
trying to import a file into a cast that hadn't been completely downloaded yet.
My solution was pretty straightforward. I created a new internal cast with
an empty text member--call the member "lastMember". Since it was the last
cast created, it will be the last downloaded while the movie is streaming.
I put a simple Flash animation into the first frame. Then this simple frame
script:
if the mediaReady of member "lastMember" = false then go to the frame
I know this isn't particularly original, but it's practical, and I thought
I'd pass it along for anybody having a similar problem.
Cordially,
