.swf preloader

preloader before the preloader

[StoutFiles]

Sometimes it takes a .swf file a little while to appear, and THEN the preloader on the .swf will start. What I'd like is some sort of progress bar or an animated .gif where the flash video is until it appears. Is this possible? Everytime i search for something I only find preloaders for the flash file, not outside of it.

I think there is a confusion.

Do you want to display a gif preloader image till the swf download completly.

or

Do you want to display a progress bar in swf file itself till all the frames of swf download completly.

Actully I've seen second option only & all other follow this method to show the progress bar. its very simple. we put some code on first frame where we can calculate the downloaded frame count. you can get the example any where on the net.

Hope this one can solve your prob. CHEERS :)
