Hi,
Use a transparent clip over the top rather than making a clip a mask
for your loaded clip - that should intercept mouse clicks, not sure a
mask will?

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:

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("

");
}
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.
