Problem putting external (4) .SWF's on homepage CS4

Question

Hey everybody!
I've got a question/request concerning my first flash website. www.seniorict.com If you look at my site you will see 4 .swf's loaded in from the sides. This effect is made possible by Jquery script. But because of lack of compatibility with Opera & Internetexplorer. I have to integrate this all in one swf. But I've got not a clue what kind of code I need to make this effect working.
So to be clear what I want is Containing 4 swf's 25% height & 100% width. The slide in function is something I also would like to have (but maybe that's asking for just to much). If you want to see the code of the actionscript from the swf''s you can check it out at the included zip.
I am sorry for asking this much but I am getting desperate after several (2 months) attempts
Thanks in advance for your time!

Hey Ratko
Firstly open up the new AS3 document and for width set the size of the SFWs you have and for height use the height of the one SWFx4 (i saw they are same height). Then from Components panel use drag and drop 4 loaders and set dimensions of each loader to dimension of the SWF file you want to import in them. And distribute them to cover up the whole space of the document so they will be touching itself in width.
Thank you very much for your long explanation!! I truly appreciate it! But I stumble directly on (I hope) a small problem. The Swf's I'm using have no fixed stage this made possible with the No_scale . The total code of one of the external swf is this
import flash.display.StageAlign;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
import flash.display.GradientType;
import flash.display.SpreadMethod;
import flash.display.InterpolationMethod;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ADDED, onStageResize);
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, onStageResize);
var backgroundGradient:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChildAt(backgroundGradient, 0);
function onStageResize(e:Event):void{
    var colors:Array = [0xFEC401, 0xFF6701];
    var alphas:Array = [1, 1];
    var ratios:Array = [0, 0xFF];
    var matrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
    matrix.createGradientBox(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight, (3 * Math.PI / 2), -600, -150);
    var focalPoint:Number = .1;
    with(backgroundGradient.graphics){
        clear();
        beginGradientFill(GradientType.RADIAL, colors, alphas, ratios, matrix, SpreadMethod.PAD, InterpolationMethod.RGB, focalPoint);
        drawRect(0, 0, stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
        endFill();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("opdrachtgeverstest.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loadProgress);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
function loadProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void {
var percentLoaded:Number = event.bytesLoaded/event.bytesTotal;
percentLoaded = Math.round(percentLoaded * 100);
trace("Loading: "+percentLoaded+"%");
function loadComplete(event:Event):void {
loader.load(request);
addChild(loader);
You can see that there's no stage fixed so it sizes to the screensize of the browser. Now I don't got a clue how to make sure that the 4 loaders are spread out on the stage of the main.swf by not fixed pixels but on percentages. I've googled for 6 hours without finding a solution to set the sizes of loaders in fixed percentages to the stage . I would like to know how to fix those loaders. To see the .swf in action check this out http://www.seniorict.com/opdrachtgevers.swf .
Again I truly appreciate your great post and the time you've invested in me. I think after this small issue I finally can achieve the effect that I want thru your great explanation. Hope you can help me with this question!
