Wow! I didnt even know this was possible. Why the heck do companies use tracking companies like Hitbox if this is possible?

Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Logging Flash-Internal User Access?


It's actually pretty straightforward and easy.  Here's a quick way to
track page impressions with no back-end code whatsoever.

Create empty (0 bytes) .txt (or .html) files and put them in a folder on
the server.  Have Flash loadVars the txt files and append a noCache
argument with the date in milliseconds so it doesn't cache.  So, your
file URL would look something like this:

tUrl = "tracking/page1.txt?noCache=" + new Date().getTime();

Just loadVars a file every time they load in a different page.  They'll
be able to check their weblogs to see traffic.  If they want something
more like session data and such, then you'll have to write a back-end to
support it.
