Hey guys… is there a way that I can keep track of clicks in certain areas/links for a full flash site?

You will need a server side “Counter Script” for this if you need the persistance. otherwise you can put  
//in the first frame of the \_root time line  
var counterValue:Number;

```auto

//buttons on Press event
on(press){
counterValue+=1;
}

```
