I pulled this from google's cache, it's incomplete because that is how the code appears in the post:

import mx.utils.Delegate;
class com.NavigationManager extends MovieClip {
	private var itemArray:Array;
	private var currentColumnIndex:Number;
	private var currentRowIndex:Number;
	function NavigationManager() {
		itemArray = new Array();
		var l = Key.addListener(this);
		this.onKeyUp = Delegate.create(this, keyIsDown);
	}
	function keyIsDown():Void {
		switch (Key.getCode()) {
			case 13 :
				onEnter();
				break;
			case 40 :
				calculate("down");
				break;
			case 38 :
				calculate("up");
				break;
			case 37 :
				calculate("left");
				break;
			case 39 :
				calculate("right");
				break;
		}
	}
	function addItem(columnIndex:Number, rowIndex:Number, item:MovieClip):Void {
		if (itemArray[columnIndex] == undefined) {
			itemArray[columnIndex] = new Array();
		}
		itemArray[columnIndex][rowIndex] = item;
	}
	private function calculate(direction:String) {
		switch (direction) {
			case "down" :
				if (itemArray[currentColumnIndex].length-1>=currentRowIndex+1) {
					itemArray[currentColumnIndex][currentRowIndex].onOut();
					navigateToIndex(currentColumnIndex, currentRowIndex+1);
				} else {
					itemArray[currentColumnIndex][currentRowIndex].onOut();
					navigateToIndex(currentColumnIndex, 0);
				}
				break;
			case "up" :
				if (currentRowIndex-1<0) {
					itemArray[currentColumnIndex][currentRowIndex].onOut();
					navigateToIndex(currentColumnIndex, itemArray[currentColumnIndex].length-1);
				} else {
					itemArray[currentColumnIndex][currentRowIndex].onOut();
					navigateToIndex(currentColumnIndex, currentRowIndex-1);
				}
				break;
			case "left" :
				if (currentColumnIndex-1<0) {
					itemArray[currentColumnIndex][currentRowIndex].onOut();
					for (var i:Number = itemArray.length; i>0; i--) {
						if (itemArray[i][currentRowIndex] != undefined) {
							trace(itemArray[i][currentRowIndex]);
							break;
						}
					}
					navigateToIndex(i, currentRowIndex);
				} else {
					itemArray[currentColumnIndex][currentRowIndex].onOut();
					for (var i:Number = currentColumnIndex-1; i>-1; i--) {
						if (itemArray[i][currentRowIndex] != undefined) {
							trace(i);
							trace(itemArray[i][currentRowIndex]);
							break;
						}
					}
					if (i == -1) {
						for (var i:Number = itemArray.length; i>0; i--) {
							if (itemArray[i][currentRowIndex] != undefined) {
								break;
							}
						}
					}
					navigateToIndex(i, currentRowIndex);
				}
				break;
			case "right" :
				if (currentColumnIndex+1>itemArray.length-1) {
					itemArray[currentColumnIndex][currentRowIndex].onOut();

yeah, sometimes the sites go dead after posting (this was posted over a year ago), not much we can do about that except for letting everyone know its a a dead link.

Hmmm, there is another problem with the class: it always starts out with the first file already loaded. So when I load only one file, the class will immediately claim that the first file is 100% loaded and done, even though it it not… And then the swf will pop up later.

I’ve been testing it with these files: http://www.2shine.nl/post/QueueLoader%20test.zip

Thanks for fixing the files. Too bad the total progress does not show the real progress but simply divides the loading progress through the number of files to be loaded. This way when you load 4 small files and then 1 large file the last bit of your ‘total loading progress’ will take much longer than the rest…

What would be the best way to address this problem, maybe use a server side script to pass the filesizes to Flash?
