SWF preloading

Post

I need to insert SWF file in HTML page, but since it is quite large, I want to preload it.

Anyone with link where to get java script or some other solution?

Thanks in advance.

Manchild, while I don't know anything specific, http://webmonkey.com has a wealth of information.

Search for optimization tutorials.

Thanks. Checked but it seams that I've stumbled on bigger problem than expected.

I'm not into flash at all. Just wanted to preload .swf file. Seamed like no big deal, but it appears not to be so. :cry:

My understanding is that spacing things out to load will give you a faster overall page load time. It's when multiple things are going at once you get more slowdown.

I start the HTML and Dreamweaver courses of my Webmaster program next week.

I plan on becoming a ninja in this stuff eventually.

Thanks,

I've tried it before, but it must be that I'm not doing something right.
