[Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
I have a page with a fairly detailed Flash app embedded. There are also 3 ad units on this page. I'd like to setup the swf to force the three ad units to refresh when a user navigates through to a new section of the flash app. I assumed I'd need to setup iframes around the adds, then call some js function from Flash which performs a document.location action on the iframes, and it seems to be working in Firefox, but not IE. Has anyone needed to do something similar and maybe offer some insight?

Re: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
Hi again Sorry for omitting that info. The ads are served through 247realmedia's OAS. The ads are typically swfs or jpegs, but they're not loaded into the flash area. The ad units exist in the page; a banner, leaderboard, and island. I have complete control over the coding of the page. I just need to make the ads to refresh at certain events in the flash area. I've seen some of the output from OAS, and typically its a document.write statement that puts the ad in the page. Does that help?

Re: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
I'm not sure how 247realmedia works but I know eyeblaster have some custom code that lets you communicate from one banner to another via their extension. You might want to check with them.

Re: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
I'm sorry I guess I'm not explaining things clearly. I don't need the banners to communitcate with each other. I need to setup some solution, I'm sure with the help of javascript, that will trigger the defined ad units on teh page to refresh, independent of the entire page reloading. For example, assume I have a page called page.html, which has a FlashApp embedded. If I'm moving some section A to section B in my flash app, I'd like to force the ads on page.html to all refresh without reloading the whole page again. Is that clearer?

RE: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
As you've stated, set up your ads as IFRAME's and give them unique ID's.
Then, create a JavaScript like below to change the SRC of the IFRAME's
and call that function from your FLA.
function reloadAds() {
document.getElementById('adframe1').src = uri1;
document.getElementById('adframe2').src = uri2;
document.getElementById('adframe3').src = uri3;
}

Re: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
Sorry - I was assuming all banners were SWFs - in which case you could
use localconnection to run a loadMovie in the banners you want to
change (loading another SWF to the root level of each swf).

Re: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
So the correct code to use is .src, and not .location? Also I've seen some
code where the parentheses are brackets instead. Is there a difference?

Re: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
Seth
Thanks alot for that code, I hope I'm almost there. I have one more
problem. The data coming for the ads is actually javascript; a
document.write() command to be exact. When I use your code, the javascript
code appears in the ad areas. How would I change the code to have it render
that command?
Thanks a ton for the help so far.

RE: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
Yes. The .src will get you want you want.
The document.location.href will only work accurately in some browsers.
Here is a break down.
http://www.quirksmode.org/js/iframe.html
--
As for the square brackets vs parentheses it has to do with how you
access the object.
If you're using NAME instead of ID on an element then you can use the
array reference (square backets) like so: document.frames[name].
The preferred method is to use the Document Object Model and access the
object directly like so: document.getElementById(id).

So the correct code to use is .src, and not .location? Also I've seen
some
code where the parentheses are brackets instead. Is there a difference?

I'm sorry I guess I'm not explaining things clearly. I don't need the
banners to communitcate with each other. I need to setup some
solution,
I'm
sure with the help of javascript, that will trigger the defined ad
units
on
teh page to refresh, independent of the entire page reloading. For
example,
assume I have a page called page.html, which has a FlashApp embedded.
If
I'm
moving some section A to section B in my flash app, I'd like to force
the
ads on page.html to all refresh without reloading the whole page
again.
Is that clearer?

Hi again
Sorry for omitting that info. The ads are served through
247realmedia's
OAS. The ads are typically swfs or jpegs, but they're not loaded
into
the
flash area. The ad units exist in the page; a banner, leaderboard,
and
island. I have complete control over the coding of the page. I
just
need to
make the ads to refresh at certain events in the flash area. I've
seen
some
of the output from OAS, and typically its a document.write
statement
that
puts the ad in the page.
Does that help?
Thanks again

I assumed I'd need to setup iframes around the adds, then call

Has
anyone
needed to do something similar and maybe offer some insight?

Re: [Flashcoders] Need to reload page ads on Flash event clicks.
Yes I'm pulling an html file for the iframe, but I'm not sure that would
work for this purpose. The call to the ad server gets js back; a
document.write() command. I tried putting at call into a js command, but
that doesn't seem to work. Here's an example of the code:
Your reload function modified to append the OAS as a var to each iframe:
function reloadAds(sitepage,rns,pcookie,adcontent1,adcontent2) {
document.getElementById('topad1').src = ad_iframe_top.jhtml?ad=
http://oas.server.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_jx.ads/+sitepage+/1+rns+@Right,Position1,x96,BottomRight!Top?+
pcookie + + adcontent1 + + adcontent2;
document.getElementById('if1').src = ad_iframe_left.jhtml?ad=
http://oas.server.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_jx.ads/+sitepage+/1+rns+@Right,Top,Bottom,Right1,Left,Position1,x96,BottomRight!Left2?+
pcookie + + adcontent1 + + adcontent2;
document.getElementById('tower1').src = ad_iframe_tower.jhtml?ad=
http://oas.server.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_jx.ads/+sitepage+/1+rns+@Right,Top,Bottom,Position1,x96,BottomRight!Right?+
pcookie + + adcontent1 + + adcontent2;
}
Then in each iframe.html file, this code takes the variable 'ad' and writes
it into a javascript call so that presumably, the ad appears - but the ad
isn't.
if (ad!= null) {
document.write('SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript type=text/javascript SRC='
+ ad + '\/SCRIPT');
}
I know it's extremely hacky. If anyone has a smarter approach, I'd really
appreciate it. I know that the ad variable is getting read by the page. I
think the problem is that for some reason the returned javascript is not
being rendered.

Without seeing you code, here are my thoughts.
I assume you're pulling in an actually HTML page with the IFRAME
correct?
If that is the case you can just change up that JS function like so:
document.getElementById (id).src = document.getElementById(id).src;
That way it will just reload the current SRC.

Seth
Thanks alot for that code, I hope I'm almost there. I have one more
problem. The data coming for the ads is actually javascript; a
document.write() command to be exact. When I use your code, the
javascript
code appears in the ad areas. How would I change the code to have it
render
that command?
Thanks a ton for the help so far.
