Hi gurus,
Just created AS3 banner which needs to link to a website. In order to track the clicks on the banner, the URL must be passed from the banner software (xigla banner). When using AS2 the button simply had getURL( url, “_Blank”) and xigla created this code:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="468" height="60">
<param name="movie" value="$$APPURL$$banners/Q/Quantum Solutions/20080605quantumsolutions468.swf?url=$$URL$$">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="$$APPLICATIONURL$$banners/Q/Quantum Solutions/20080605quantumsolutions468.swf?url=$$URL$$" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="468" height="60"></embed></object>
the value for $$URL$$ is then entered in XIGLA (http://www.xigla.tv/avc-view.aspx?videoid=3&categoryid=3 online tutorial) and then takes the place of url in the swf
In AS3 I think I need to declare a var url and use this.loaderInfo.url somehow to bring in the value of $$URL$$ but unfortunately this is where I am quite stuck. I’ve emailed Xigla but they have yet to offer a successful solution and so I turn to you. Here’s hoping
Kind Regards
James
