ClickTAG only working with "http:/" url, not "http://"?

Aug 17, 2012 6:15 AM

Here is the HTML I'm using:

 

<div>

            <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="728" height="90" id="myFlashContent">

                <param name="movie" value="test.swf?clickTAG=http:/www.google.com" />

                <!--[if !IE]>-->

                <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="test.swf?clickTAG=http:/www.google.com" align="right" width="728" height="90">

                <!--<![endif]-->

                    <img src="test.jpg" class="ad_section" />

                <!--[if !IE]>-->

                </object>

                <!--<![endif]-->

            </object>

        </div>

 

Here is the AS code:

 

button1.addEventListener(

  MouseEvent.CLICK,

  function():void {

    if (root.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") {

      navigateToURL(

        new URLRequest(root.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG), "_blank"

      );

    }

  }

);

 

Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

    @Guywiththegun40 The problem is if you test it offline in the browser and you haven't added the folder as a trusted location in the Flash Player Setting Manager (you can open it by right clicking on the flash movie in the browser and choosing Global Settings...). This way "http://" won't work, and "http:/" will work, but only in some browsers, in other browsers it will throw an error that there is no folder named "http:". If you don't want to change the Flash Player settings, you can upload the flash file on a server and test it in a browser, then "http://" will work.
