Hi Muzak, I have just tried this and still get the error.
Screenshot of error: http://www.mikecann.co.uk/DumpingGround/AS2_Problem01.png Example Code: http://www.mikecann.co.uk/DumpingGround/AS2_StrippedBare_SneakyButton.zip Also there is another problem. If you click outside of the masked area of the advert it still registers it as a click on the loaded movie!?! Anyone else any ideas? 2008/12/3 Muzak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Use the (very) old invisible button trick. > So create a "Button symbol" with only the "hit" state (keyframe) defined > and put that on top of the movieclip that holds the loaded swf. > > ----- Original Message ----- From: "mike cann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Flash Coders List" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> > Sent: Wednesday, December 03, 2008 3:07 PM > Subject: [Flashcoders] [AS2] Catching clicks in child clip? > > > 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.
