Hello List, I have been forced to go back to AS2 recently for a work project and oh my is it annoying me.
Part of the project I am writing a simple advertising loader, its basically just a swf that loads other swfs into it. The problem is that the adverts that are loaded in sometimes contain clicks within them so without access to the source code i need a method of preventing those clicks from happening. To my knowledge this should be doable by implementing a cover over the top of the loaded swf with a onPress, onRelease etc functions defined correct? Well for some reason this isnt happenining. See the source output below. You can download the project here: http://www.mikecann.co.uk/DumpingGround/AS2_StrippedBare.zip import flash.geom.Matrix; import mx.controls.Loader; import mx.utils.Delegate; /** * ... * @author DefaultUser (Tools -> Custom Arguments...) */ class GJAdJacket { // Privates private var _mc : MovieClip; private var _adContainter : MovieClip; private var _sizeWidth:Number; private var _sizeHeight:Number; public function GJAdJacket(attachToMC:MovieClip) { // The MC we are to attach to _mc = attachToMC; // Set the stage scale modes Stage.scaleMode = "noScale"; Stage.align = "TL"; // Init _sizeWidth = 300; _sizeHeight = 250; loadAdvert(" http://gjacket-images.adbureau.net/gjacket/_clientcreative/Eidos/BattleMail021208.swf "); } private function loadAdvert(advertURL:String) { // Make a mask for those naughty ads that dont mask var mask : MovieClip = _mc.createEmptyMovieClip("mask", _mc.getNextHighestDepth()); mask.beginFill(0, 255); mask.moveTo(0,0); mask.lineTo(_sizeWidth,0); mask.lineTo(_sizeWidth,_sizeHeight); mask.lineTo(0,_sizeHeight); mask.lineTo(0,0); mask.endFill(); _mc.setMask(mask); mask.onMouseUp = Delegate.create(this, advertClickthrough); mask.onRelease = function() { } mask.onPress = function() { } mask.onMouseDown = function() { } mask.onMouseMove = function() { } _adContainter = _mc.createEmptyMovieClip("container", _mc.getNextHighestDepth()); _adContainter.loadMovie(advertURL); } public function advertClickthrough() { getURL("http://www.google.com", "_blank") } } Cheers. -- Mike Cann http://www.mikecann.co.uk/ http://www.artificialgames.co.uk/ _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
