make a movie clip of the bar coming down. Then somehow you will have to figure out a way to mimic the movie for every link on the php file before showing an ending bar.

The first problem is with your PHP page. You have to setup the variables to be displayed for actionscript instead of PHP. Dont quote me on this but I think its & instead of $ for a variable and they must be echoed onto a php page.

I'm not entirely sure if the variable stuff is correct since I am learning php orienatated flash right now.

I would try http://www.flash-kit.com and go under tutorials. Then select actionscript and go to the last page(most recent tutorials). Find one on like a php/flash counter and learn off that.
