Subject:	Re: FLASH: if frame loaded

You can use "if frame is loaded" on the frame that contains the movie
clip. Once everything that is in that frame has loaded, including the
whole movie clip and anything else the movie will start playing. One
suggestion though, if this is a huge intro you are not taking
advantage of Flash's streaming but asking the viewer to sit and wait
for the whole thing to load. While I'm a big fan of using movie clips
this may not be using them to the best advantage. I hope it is a
great intro and will be worth the wait.
