downloading library problem

Hi,

I have a master.swf that loads a content.swf, and content.swf uses library
library.swf. library.swf is huge, so I do a loadClip() from master with
some preload animation. When that is done, then I loadClip() content.swf.

My problem is that, from the server logs, it seems to be downloading
library.swf twice. Although when testing it, it seems like it's only
downloading it once (from a browser perspective). So in essence,
I'm not exactly sure what's going on.

Does anyone have any ideas of what's going on in the background?

Thanks,
anthony

I assume that you have designated library.swf to be a shared library. If so
then it will start downloading as soon as you start the swf in which it is
used, so there si no need for a loadMovie() action. That would explain the
two times load.
