Flash "clickTag" Specs

In order for InStyle.com to properly track and report clicks with site served flash ads, please ensure all ads have the clickTag properly implemented. Adobe/Macromedia currently recommends a "clickTag" method to track clicks for flash ads. This method uses variables to pass the click tracking string and URL into the Flash creative movies. As a result, the only text in the URL box is _level0.clickTag (underscore level ZERO period clickTag). _level0. (underscore level zero period) is included for "pathing" purposes to ensure that Flash can properly locate the variable.

Here is what the coding will look like when you are done:

For flash files with multiple clickable areas, we accept multiple clickTags as follows:

NOTE: clickTag is case sensitive
Hard coded clickthrough URLs will not be accepted

Flash "clickTag" AS3 Specs Create the button Add the ActionScript to the button Flash files with multiple clickable areas
NOTE: Up to five (5) clickable areas maximum

NOTE: clickTag is case sensitive
Hard coded clickthrough URLs will not be accepted
