How can I check the progress of a Loader from within a movie clip?

[adsparrow]

Hi All,

I have a Loader called profileContentLoader that I create in AS3 on the main timeline, I would like to check the bytesLoaded of profileContentLoader from within a movieclip thats in another movieclip....

I tried:

MovieClip(root).profileContentLoader.bytesLoaded

but that doesn't work....

Thanks for any help

The Loader class uses a LoaderInfo class object to do its loading event informational bidding.  Look into the contentLoaderInfo property of the Loader class and then followup looking at the LoaderInfo class to see what you can make use of from it.
