Hi everybody.

Allright, i am loading an external jpg into a movieClip. No problem there.

I want to show the user the percentage of the image that as been loaded.

here is my code:

onClipEvent (data) {
total_bytes = this.getBytesTotal();
loaded_bytes = this.getBytesLoaded();
percent_done = int((loaded_bytes/total_bytes)*100);
txtfield = percent_done + ” %”;
}

It works but it only give me “100%” when the image is loaded. I don’t see the progression of the percentage… (ex: 5%, 43%...)

What should i do to make it work ?

thx

Allright, it work, but not on a Mac… Damn Mac.
When i am testing the load Jpeg function on a Mac(Internet Explorer) the loading script works but the image is not displayed.

Does flash have a function to refresh the Mc that contained the image ?

The function works properly on a pc (Ie and Netscape) but not on a mac (Damn Mac !!!).

Allright , so if you have ideas, please share,
Thx.

And #/cisnky/#, you were right about the ‘enterFrame’.

So I came across this thread because I am having a simmilar problem with loading jpegs.  The link above has a great tutorial, but it dosn’t seem to solve the problem of how to get a preloader to work with the data of the jpeg, not the clip that you are replacing.  Any thoughts?

I may have not used the technique described in pedalspeed’s link correctley, however I can’t figure out what is wrong for the life of me.
