ActionScript 2.0 :: Clicktag Not Working On Banner Ad?
Apr 14, 2010I've done a banner ad for my client. The marketing company is kicking it back saying the clickTAG variable is not working. Below is the required code and specs. The attached Zip file has the ad. I'm a newbie to AS2, which is required for the ad.
Click Tags:All Flash banner ads are required to support the clickTAG variable. The clickTAG is the tracking code assigned by the publisher to an individual ad. It allows the publisher to register where the ad was displayed when it was clicked and helps ReachLocal evaluate the effectiveness of the banner creative.
On any click, Flash ads should redirect to the URL specified in the clickTAG argument; there should be no other redirection in between.The variable name must be reflected exactly as follows: clickTAG (upper-case TAG; no space between click and TAG; not click tag, Click Tag, or any other form).The Flash banner ad should contain the following code for the clickTAG parameter:
on (release) { if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") { getURL(clickTAG, "_blank"); }
}
The above code should be copied and pasted into the banner ad�s code exactly
* as it appears above.The code should not specify the destination URL for the ad; this is a responsibility of ReachLocal.
*Additional Web Developer Information: Depending on the structure of your Flash ad, it may be necessary to prepend "_root." or "_level0." to the clickTAG above, resulting in "_root.clickTAG" or "_level0.clickTAG".

Banner Ads - ClickTag And Transferring Variables In Query String
May 4, 2010Is there a standard way to send variables through a banner ad? A client wants a banner that lets the user enter his mobile number, then receives a code by sms, and then enters the code into the banner. If the code then validates, the user is sent to a page with a login form with the phone number and code filled in. It must be possible to add the phone number and code as parameters to the clickTag somehow? I found that Adform supports using ";cppar=1&" and then variable=value pairs, but is this a standard, or a special feature of Adform?
View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Banner - Adding Variable To ClickTag
Jan 11, 2009I working on a flashbanner. It is a dynamic textfield called "regnr" where the user is supposed to add a registration number (of their car) before clicking the send button. This code is on the button:
Code:
on(release){
//getURL("[URL]"+regnr.text);
getURL(_root.clickTag+regnr.text,"_blank");
}}
It works when the domain is hardcoded but doesn't work when I am using the clickTag. Is it possible to add variables like this to a clickTag? How could this be done to actually work?

Tracking A Flash Banner Advert Using ClickTag And Google Analytics?
Apr 23, 2010I'm trying to find out if there is a way of using clickTag and Google Analytics to track outgoing banner clicks. clickTag code:
on (release) {
if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") {
getURL(clickTAG);
}
}
Maybe someone can tell me whether the following would work:
on (release) {
if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") {
getURL("javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/somebannerad');");
getURL(clickTAG);
}
}
like a solution that worked with the standard clickTag code and didn't involve changing any code in the flash file.

Jul 9, 2009I am having some difficulty creating a SWF file that had a FLV embedded that is completely clickable at any point during the video.

I have tried everything from adding layers with click instances (http://forums.adobe.com/message/256259#256259) to making a button the size of the video that is set at 0% alpha.Every time I either get the video playing that is not clickable or i get the flv icon flashing (no video) that is clickable, or I get the flv icon flashing and it is not clickable at all.I am using CS3 and just looking for a video banner ad.

Creating A Clickable Scale Button?
Aug 24, 2009I am creating a survey in flash to survey people's opinion about the temperature in a building. What I am hoping to do is have a scale which the surveyee can click on (see attached image) with 5 options from Too warm, warm, just right, cool, and too cold, and record where on the scale they click.
For example, if "Just Right" were correlated to an answer of 3 and "Warm" was correlated to an answer of 2, and a user were to click halfway between the two, I would want the recorded value to be 2.5. If they click closer to "Just Right" I want the recoded answer to be 2.8, etc.
It seems that the quick and dirty way I can think of doing this is to create a serious of invisible buttons over my scale which can then tell me where they click, but then I am limited in the granularity of the answer and it would just be a pain to create that many buttons.

Feb 17, 2011I have a pretty simple flash banner(using flash cs4) that I want ot make clickable.I am assuming I have everything correct, because when I "test movie", everything works as expected.Now comes the odd part. When I export movie, the clickable portion no longer works. Along the same lines as soon as I save the .fla file, the "test movie" no longer works.I have recreated this about 10 times now and everytime the same result. now I have it open on my computer, because as soon as I save it will no longer work.
My actionscript(3.0) code is as follows:
link_btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, sgurl);
function sgurl(Event:MouseEvent):void;

and yes I have a button with an instance name of link_btn1
Creating Flash Animation With Clickable Buttons At The End?
May 31, 2010I'm ultimately trying to create a flash page for an html website that has a brief five-second animation during which 3 buttons fade in (buttons then become clickable after the animation is over).
The animation part is done. Right now, I am trying to get my movie to stop and hold on the last frame, where I want to add the 3 buttons that the user can click on to take them to one 3 different html pages of my website.
All instructions that I've found online have said to create a new layer for actions, insert a keyframe on the last frame of the movie, and add stop(); in the actionscript window. However, when I have the keyframe selected, my actionscript window says "current selection cannot have actions applied to it".
I definitely don't have any objects selected, just the keyframe.
You can see that I have the frame (a keyframe) that I want to insert a "stop" action selected in the Actions layer. This is the first frame in which the buttons exist, and from what I can tell, I need the clip to stop on the first frame of my buttons, after my animation is over. (Still figuring out how to get the buttons to work, but will address that later...)

IDE :: Creating A Clickable Interface That Shows Values Graphically?

There are a number of teams, and for each point a team scores, their 'points' will be equivalent to a certain amount of money.Problem:To figure out a way on how to make so, that when you click/add a point to a certain team, the following should happen:1) The team's amount increases2) The team's bar shows the same increase3) The total amount of all teams updates and shows at the top of the screenHere's a pic that illustrates the whole thing:Fund raiser interfaceIs there anyone out there who has a clue on how to get this thing working? The graphical aspects of it with tweening etc is no problem, it's the actual "adding value to Bar1 and have a MC show the increase, and summarize the total value of all bars" programming that I'm struggling majestically with.
