    Default Delaying Flash Document Loading

    I'm working on a site that has multiple small flash documents within each page,
    and I was wondering if it is possble to delay the second .swf from loading
    until the first one has finished loading (or playing)? Is there a behavior or
    code for something like this? I have preloaders built into both flash
    documents so they're supposed to have all the frames loaded before they play,
    but it doesn't quite seem to be doing that. The first one is only maybe 35-40
    frames long, and once it plays thru it stops on a frame and stays there. The
    other doc is a loop and it seems like if the short one can play first and come
    to a stop the second might load easier. Any ideas?

    No.

    How heavy are your Flash elements? That's the problem....
