More information for Flash Adverts

For any click areas within your advert, please remove any hard coded links to your web site, and in place add the following actionscript.

on (release) {

 if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") {

   getURL(clickTAG, "_blank");

  }
}

The whole advert should be clickable.

We will pass a URL to the flash file which will be used to redirect the user to your web site. You will need to let us know where you would like your advert to click through to when you make your booking.

Please note: you do not need to add your own URL to your flash file, simply add the click tag code as shown above.
