Hi, thanks for replying! I'm not entirely sure what you mean and when I went to c7P the code you kindly posted it was immediately apparent (from my little programming knowledge) that there is a counter and that is how the percentage meter works, but I think it looks at the "images" var to make the whole thing work. I tried supplementing the "var images" line of code for your but it didn't work.
Was your suggestion in place of the whole preloading code that I had put in, you see the thing is I really wanted a progress meter, that's what this gives me. Can the code you gave me be integrated into the existing one so it works? Thanks.
