Preloader Problem

I have a preloader that loads an external .swf file. Preloader works fine, technically the external .swf loads fine, but the external .swf is scaled up so you can only see about 2/3 of the screen. I made the stage for the preloader the same size as the stage for the external swf. I used the HTML for the swf that gets loaded, and just changed the file name to that of my loader. Any ideas?

Have you tried to rescale the swf after you load it?

By HTML, I mean the HTML file that is generated when you publish the file for the web. I simply changed the "xx.swf" that the index.html file loads to the loader swf, then had the preloader load the "xx.swf"

I didn't rescale anything, because both swf's have the same stage size so I thought once the preloader ended and the "xx.swf" began, it would have the same dimensions as the loader.

copy and paste the code related to your loader (only).

what do you mean by, "I used the HTML..."?

you should be loading the swf, not the html.
