Hi Guys, First post…
I need to answer this question and do what it asks for a job interview… Trouble is… my strengths are html/css/photoshop rarther than my flash.
I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to point me in the right direction for solving this thing. It would really help get me started.
I hope to work on researching and doing this over the weekend for hand in Monday morning…
The Task…
1) Create a static flash ad, The ad must contain a flash button graphic that can have a dynamic label applied. In other words, the text label on the button should be able to be set from outside the flash file. Create a click area the entire size of the unit that will go to a dynamic url, again that can be set from outside the flash file.
2) Create a simple (can be blank visually) html page and embed the flash inside the page. The dynamic button label and url should somehow be set or specified in this html page.
3) There are a number of ways to pass in the dynamic variables. In a word doc, please briefly describe what method you used and some alternate methods.
ANY help regarding this is really appreciated. I’m not sure what part 2 means… perhaps they are wanting me to create a php form type field where the user puts in the desired button text and chooses a site they want the add to link to (this is sent to an external txt or xml or something?) which then in turn updates the appearance of the flash banner and affects where it links to automatically?
I really a bit in the dark at this stage…
Help! Thank you so much.
David
