Hey..

I posted a similar problem in the other topic but I have more specific needs
now and I want to open it up to people..

My original post was asking how to create a complex pre loader that would lo
ad
the first page wanted (within the flash file),
and while they are browsing the first page, continue to load the other pages
(or scenes) in the background, showing another preloader for when they click
 on
that page (with its loading progress)..

I still want to know how to do this, however I have realized that if i force
pages to load in a certain order then, they will have probelms if they want 
to
view the site a different way.

The Site i am making should end up being around 1 meg (with around 5 main,
heavily animated pages), and I want to find the best way to present it and
cater to slow connections as I will also be streaming mp3's while they are
browsing.

Ideally I would like to:
a) have a preloader load the first page and have it displayed.
b) have it then continue to load other pages in an order of my choice, to sa
ve
them time...
c) If they click on the page that is still loading, have it display its
loading progress.
and finally
d) If they click another page, stop the other loading and begin loading that
page before the others....


This is beginning to seem not worth the effort,  but if anyone does know how
to do something like this
(or close) please let me know...

I am relativley new to some things in flash and very good on the basic
animation/interaction side..

All help will be appreciated and I would like any links to theory on
presenting large sites of this type to slower
connections (AND CODE IF POSSIBLE!)...

Thanks in advance....

Adam.
