var pb:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("progressBar_mc",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
pb.createEmptyMovieClip("bar_mc", pb.getNextHighestDepth());
pb.createEmptyMovieClip("vBar_mc", pb.getNextHighestDepth());
pb.createEmptyMovieClip("stroke_mc", pb.getNextHighestDepth());
pb.createTextField("pos_txt", pb.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, pb_height,
pb_width, 22);
pb._x = 100;
pb._y = 100;
with (pb.bar_mc) {
beginFill(0x00FF00);
moveTo(0, 0);
lineTo(pb_width, 0);
lineTo(pb_width, pb_height);
lineTo(0, pb_height);
