Hi everyone,

I have a separate swf file that contains a preloader which then loads
another swf file containing the main movie. The code I'm using in the
preloader file is as follows:

var loader_mc:MovieClip = new Preloader();
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
function handleResize(e:Event)
{
        loader_mc.x=stage.stageWidth/2;
        loader_mc.y=stage.stageHeight/2;
}
handleResize(null);

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,onProgress);

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onComplete);

loader.load(new URLRequest("video.swf"));

addChild(loader_mc);
function onProgress(e:ProgressEvent)
{
        loader_mc.nr_txt.text=int(e.currentTarget.bytesLoaded/
e.currentTarget.bytesTotal*100);
}
function onComplete(e:Event)
{
        removeChild(loader_mc);
        addChild(loader);
}

In the video.swf file I'm using a flvplayback component to attach the
video.

If I let flash create the code for the html page, the above two files
work as expected. However I'm not using the flash-generated html code
but instead I'm using swfObject as follows:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swf/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
                        var flashvars = {};
                        var params = {};
                        var attributes = {};
                        swfobject.embedSWF("swf/preloader.swf", 
"flash_replace", "430",
"218", "9.0.0", false, flashvars, params, attributes);
                </script>

and

    <div id="flash_outer">
    <div id="flash_replace">
    <a href="consumer/sale.php"><img src="../images/
index_swf_replace.jpg" width="430" height="218" alt="Sale now on" /></
a>
    </div>
    </div>

If I use the above swfObject code, it loads the preloader.swf file but
the preloader gets stuck on zero. The animation functions correctly
but the download of the video.swf file doesn't happen - it just stays
at 0.

The problem seems to be linked to the swfObject code as I mentioned it
doesn't happen when the html code is generated by flash.

I wondered if someone could point out why this might be happening and
suggest a workaround.

Would really appreciate any help.
