I'm kind of curious about this in well. We would like to track where our SWF is embedded and being loaded from but you do not have access to the containing page in flex.
I had to hack around the SWF tracking issue by pointing users to a PHP script that used curl to grab the tracking .gif from analytics with some parameters set but it doesn't work perfectly. (It can't seem to differentiate which page views are attributes to which users). You may be able to do something similar in Flex (setup a URLRequest with the parameters the urchin tracker expects to fake a request to the server). I can't say I'm an expert on this, though. Has anyone done something similar? --- In [email protected], "Joy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi > I have a scenario, where in my flex app, on-click should take me to > a new page, eg.
