Keyboard Interaction
- No keyboard input can be used in a Flash or Shockwave movie unless it occurs on a page dedicated to the movie or in a daughter window.
Click Thru's with Flash
- add an invisible button making the entire area of the banners clickable. Attach the following object action to the button:
on (release) {
getURL (clickTag, "_blank");
}
- this will embed the clickTag variable in the FLA file. This allows the click-through URL to be modified at any time during a campaign, as opposed to hard-coding the click command in the .swf file. Target="_blank" is required in the "Basic actions" to make sure the click thru opens a new window.
Note: The implementation is different for each version of Flash, please refer to Macromedia documentation for specific instructions and syntax for using the clickTag variable and the getURL action.
