*** FLASH GUYS! Need some help real quick! $$
 

I have this banner that has a link in it and I added the ?url=blah.com but it doesn't open correctly.

can someone here help me get this right? i'll paypal u whatever you think is reasonable, its probably something stupid but i dont know flash at all :)

just a regular link or you want the link to be dynamic ? and what flash program are you using ?

like do you want the banner link to be set in the code like <embed src=flash.swf?url=yoururl.com> or hardcoded like <embed src=banner.swf> and it would always go to the same url

( p.s. because of i.e.'s security settings , the banner might not work locally but would work on a server

i wanted to be able to modify the link from the embed source so that i can properly use campaign link codes without having to change the banner around

i have flash 8

that could work, or even its own separate embed param... whatever it takes to be able to use different linkcodes without having to modify the banner

if you have icq hit me up it will be easier

bump...............

is there any way to get around the click to activate this control shit in IE re: flash?

My links works diferent on the server

Haven't tried it, but I heard using javascript to write the object and embed tags might do it.

In regard to having an embed src like:

src="flash.swf?url=http://www.someurl.com/" with an additional query string appended to the URL paramter, try and escape the "?" -- so there's not two question marks after the "flash.swf".

Also, the button in the flash movie must be coded so it uses the passed in "url" parameter. Haven't used flash in a while, but I think the command is:

getUrl( url );

u have the fla source?...i'll make your link work...4 free
