Okay well setting these values:
mask.onMouseUp = Delegate.create(this, advertClickthrough);
mask.onRelease = function() { }
mask.onPress = function() { }
mask.onMouseDown = function() { }
mask.onMouseMove = function() { }
to
_mc.onMouseUp = Delegate.create(this, advertClickthrough);
_mc.onRelease = function() { }
_mc.onPress = function() { }
_mc.onMouseDown = function() { }
_mc.onMouseMove = function() { }
has had no effect.
Believe me i have tried every single combination of where to place these
listeners. The mask is essentail BTW as some ads have objects off-stage and
hence need to be masked when they are loaded in.
