RE: FLASH: Just wondering.../preloader

[JGL]

oops . . . I read the post/question too fast.


Outta my league.


Thanks Karin for jumping in.


Boy, I would have to say some tricky jscript (coupled with loading the

images) may/maynot  accomplish this task.


But intuitively speaking, I would say no too. Really no knowing how long it

takes html/graphics to load given the variables of connection speed/network

congestion.


Sorry Spamgirl, I spoke way too soon.


regards

jgl

That's what I was going to say except that she is asking if the flash

movie can check to see if the html and images have loaded.  Unless

there is some sort of mysterious fs command I would venture a guess as

to say, no.
