    ClickTAG

    John Colombo Community Member

      Hi - I am pretty new to developing banner ads in Flash and I made one for a client, exported it in SWF and passed the file to his provider. Now his provider tells me I need to insert the correct script, that is:

       

      on (release) {

          getURL(clickTag, "_blank");

      }

       

      I put this script in the action but he keeps telling me its not ok.... can anyone help me out with this? It is an Action Script 3 Flash file, with 2 graphics layers, one layer with hidden button (alpha 0) and one action layer with the above script. What could be wrong? I am linking you to a page of my website, where you can find the FLA file and SWF... http://www.eikon13.it/fla.html

       

      thank you very much!!

       

      John

          Ciao John,

           

          I build banners for Universal Studios. I was going to write down all you needed to do but it dawned on me that I am not sure of your Flash Skill experience so I found a better tutorial to help you get it straightned out.

          Please make sure that you pay attention to the exact naming convention that you publisher gives you. there are different clickTAG, clickTag,ClickTag etc.. syntaxes that they may give to reference.

          Shoudl you have any issues feel free to write me at Russ.Sillery@universalOrlando.com and send the .fla file ( zipped ) and I'll do my best to help out.

           

          A Domani

           

          grazie

            Hey thanks! I got it working, at the end... problem was the script requested by the provider (on release...) is not accepted by Action Script 3. Once I changed it to Action Script 2, everything went ok!
