In my flash, I created a transparent button in the first frame in the uppermost layer and in the timeline it spanned the entire flash. I'm running CS4 AS 2.0 and flash player 10 When I right click the button and add the code in actions on (release) { if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") { getURL(clickTAG, "_blank"); } } and I try to export, I get a compiler error: Mouse Events Are Permitted Only For Button Instances.

I've designed an as3 flash banner with 3 input fields. The user fills in these fields and clicks a button. The text from these fields are then stored as variables, which needs to be included in the target url - like this:
websitestuff...?a=1&b=2&c=3
This is no problem. However, here's the issue: The banner needs to use clickTAG as it will be uploaded to Google Adwords. I can make the clickTAG part work, but have been unsuccessful in also adding the 3 variables after the url.
I'm building a Flash banner (as3) for AdWords, but I can't find in their documentation whether it is possible to add hash or querystring variables to appear in the eventual target url when u are using a clickTAG. Ideally I would like to use both. For example, my banner has four input fields and I would like to build my target url thusly:
var base:String= "http://www.example.com";
var qs:String= "?one=" + input1.text + "&two=" + input2.text;
var hs:String= "#three=" + input3.text + "&four=" + input4.text;
var targetUrl:String= base + qs + hs;
flash.net.navigateToURL(new URLRequest(targetUrl), "_blank");
Is this possible with AdWords while using clickTAG?
I 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?
i'm trying to add a music player that i created in CS3 w/ AS3 to an html page, also created in CS3, DW, using XHTML 1.0 Transitionalthe player works just fine when i test it in flash but then when i try to view it through the html page i get this error ::

I made a banner ad and the site gave me this code to work with:
on (release) {
if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:" ) {
getURL(clickTAG, "_blank");[code].........
I made an invisible layer and put this code on it. The swf showed the hand, but when I clicked on the banner nothing happened, on my end or on the live site.Then I used this code:
on(release)
{getURL(clickTag,"_blank")}
On my end it would open a blank page. On their end they got a 404 message.Why is it not connecting to the server and opening the link? Is there something in my file that could be preventing either clickTAG from working?I exported in Flash 9. I'm using a loop code. I have many layers and masks, but all are under the invis. layer.

I have nested my animation into a movie clip and have tried to use a pre-loader on it. The nested movie clip opening screen as a button on and the second screen as back and forward buttons. The movie clip works fine no problem until adding it to the pre-loader. The code for the pre-loader is (below) on frame 1 frame 2 to is tells it to stop and also were my nested movie clip is
function loadProgress(my_content:ProgressEvent):void {
var percent:Number = Math.floor( (my_content.bytesLoaded*100)/my_content.bytesTotal);
myLoadText.text = percent + "%";
} function loadComplete(e:Event):void {
currentFrame + 1;
} loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loadProgress);
loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
I'm trying to add a preloader to my flash movie so the user doesn't have to wait for additional frames to load while they are navigating. When I try to shift my current frames over by 2 frames to make room for the preloader I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

Everything works fine before I shift the frames by 2, so I don't understand why I'm getting a complier error abut an object not existing. What to do to add a pre-loader to my existing movie without moving everything over by two frames?
I was planning on putting this code on frame 1:
ActionScript Code:
var kbtotal:Number=stage.loaderInfo.bytesTotal/1024;
var kbloaded:Number=stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded/1024;
var percent:Number= Math.round(kbloaded/kbtotal*100)
loader.gotoAndStop(Math.floor((precent/100)*100));
loader.loadingStatus.text=Math.round(kbloaded) + " lb / " + Math.round(kbtotal) + "kb";
This code on frame 2:
ActionScript Code:
if (kbloaded == kbtotal){
gotoAndPlay("Main");
} else{
gotoAndPlay("Load");
}
I am trying to make a banner ad that allows me to tracks stats / click thrus.I thought I could use clickTags, but i don't know if I can since I need to have the MY link embedded in the fla.

View 1 RepliesWe've been developing an affiliate system and would like to detect somehow that a compiled, SWF advert implements clickTAG or not. Is there any way to automate this process?
View 2 RepliesI'm designing a Flash Ad that requires a specific clickTAG.
this.onMouseDown = function() {
var fo:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
fo.send(_root.clickTAG, "_top", "POST");
}
I want to implement user initiated sound, but I can't seem to define a certain region for the clickTAG. Also I'm using AS 2.0. I know the clickTAG won't take me to the proper location, but I uploaded it to my website to test the audio. [URL]. I tried placing an invisible movie clip over the location I want the clickTAG to work and attached the ActionScript to the mc.
When I scroll over the audio button it changes, but when I click it, instead of playing the audio it just tries to go to the URL. I also tried using a button, but that didn't work either. The website requires this specific clickTAG, which is annoying because I've used others in the past that didn't have this issue.
i am trying to get a 'clickTag' variable to work within a flash banner ad which i didn't make.. i have been assured that within the flash file the variable is being 'expected'.. i am using swfobject to pass in the clickTag variable..
[Code]...
the flash banner displays fine.. but there is 'clicking' element of it is not working.. ie. there is no link on the banner.. can anyone see any problems with the way i am doing this...? or.. is the problem definitely within the swf....??
I'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.
I keep getting this error after adding a "specialbaddie" to the flash game I am creating.Here is the actionscript code:

Can the clickTAG code in a flash banner be changed if you only have the .swf file and not the .fla file?
View 1 RepliesSo I'm getting a memory error when I try adding a keyframe to a rather large flash file that says "Not enough memory available" but I know I have plenty.
I'm running a 3.0ghz Quad core with 8GB of ram and about 100 gigs of HD space free on every drive (save the one where flash is installed, it has 16gb).
I've increased my virtual memory to 4096 - 8192 on my C drive and to 2048-4096 on the drive flash is installed to so it shouldn't be a page file issue either.
I know what a #1009 is and typically it's some bit of code that's referencing an object that has not been instantiated yet. I'm receiving this error:

Everything works 100% perfectly until I've added a new scene to the movie and placed it before the scene that throws this error. setTab has something to do with the tab order, so when I removed that it just jumps to another component and throws the same error. Text inputs and buttons. I can't seem to wrap my head around why this error keeps cropping up because the changes I make to get this error should not affect what it is. The scene added was a preloader, the movie does not progress to this scene unless the movie is completely loaded.The errors are being given for frame 3, there are components that are fully functional and similar in frame 1.

I'm currently working on a project that has been made by someone else. The problem right now is that if I play the .swf that's located in the folder of the .fla everything works fine in the movie. However, if I open the .fla I get a message telling me I need a minimum of 200 frames to run the movie. Pressing yes or no doesn't help, because after I ctrl+enter to play the movie it skips bits and acts all weird.
Everything in this .fla seems to be made in keyFrames, so no external ActionScript documents are present.
I am using Adobe CS5 myself and have no idea in what CS this project was made.
We are having problem with one certain Flash banner. We need to insert an active transparent button or to be completely correct we would need the clickTag as an active transparent button and the next function as follows:
on (release)
{
getURL (_level0.clickTag, "_blank")
}
We designed a banner with simple animation but the whole banner must be a clickable button with clickTag, so that our client can track the click and traffic.
When creating a new presentation with Flash CS5 on Windows 7, I am able to add audio to the library, but get a virtual memory error when I try to then add the audio to the stage. The error says: "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To increase available memory, close open documents or quit and increase virtual memory to allow more memory for Flash."This happens even when I am running no other programs. I have 145 GB of free space, 4.00 GB of RAM. Initial size of virtual memory is 6141, and maximum is 7000. I have an AMD Anthlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor, and a 64-bit OS. Other applications run fine, and I was always able to perform this step (drag audio to stage from library) with CS4 on XP. I got a new computer at the same time as CS5 and since then have been unable to use Flash.

I've got a movie clip which is the entire size of the stage and is activated on rollover and again on rollout to return to its original state. This works fine but now I need to add a clicktag over the top of the movie clip. The clicktag then disables the movie clip when published leaving it static.
View 1 RepliesGetting clickTAG to work should be simple (using CS4 to generate AS2), On the top layer of my swf in frame 1, I placed an invisible box, made it a MC and called it transpBox_mc. In another layer of frame 1, I placed the following code:
transpBox_mc.onMouseUp = function():Void {
// with or without :Void it still doesn't work
if (_root.clickTAG.substr(0,4) == "http") {
getURL(_root.clickTAG, "_blank");
}}
// also tried this as a transparent button with an onRelease event
In the HTML, I placed a Param tag in the Object section:
<param name="flashvars" value="clickTAG=[URL]" />
And also placed the variable in the Embed section:
embed src="movie.swf?clickTAG=[URL]"
// also tried flashvars="clickTAG=[URL]"
In all cases, the movie plays fine, but the link doesn't work. I tried locally, on my server and also tried the tester at [URL] (though it isn't clear which part of the parameter to enter).
