Hi all. Completely new to Flash - have Flash CS6.
I have successfully created an ad banner with an embedded link. Now, I need to take the same ad banner and create a clicktag. The code I have used for the "embedded" banner is the following:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
circle.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickcircle);
function clickcircle (event:MouseEvent):void {
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.url.com");
navigateToURL (myURL);
}
As I stated, that works great.
I have been told by the owner of the site where the clicktag banner will be going, to use the following code:
on (release) {
if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http://www.url.com") {
getURL(clickTAG, "_blank");
}
}
But that doesn't seem to worl. I can export the banner, but if I click on it, it doesn't bring me anywhere. So, I guess the first Q is - is that the entire code I need? Or do I incorporate that somehow to the old code I had?
I was driven to this page:
http://support.google.com/dfp_sb/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=13160&answer=79268
But that's not really helping me - I guess b/c I am so new this that I dont really undertand all of that.
So, I was hoping someone would be kind enough to help me out here.
Thanks in advance.
