  Hello, I am new in Flash, I have created my first flash movie. www.prideimage.com. Now my question is that I have a movie in my first page that calls my second page and in that page my second movie has a mp3 song that really takes sometime to load the first time. Is there a way of preloadinf that second movie when you are in my first page so like that when you get to the second page you do not wait so long thinking that the page is not loading. or to put an animation that loops such as "loading..." that is playing while the clip is laoding itself completely and that truns off and lets the movie play when the music is loaded. Got to the website www.prideimage.com. waited out and you will see exactly what i am talking about. Thanks alot for your help, learning flash!!

  create a movie then in the first frame put this movie in, and put the code from this site

  into it, it basically waits till the next or whichever frame has loaded, so it stays on frame one where the loading movie u created is.
