How to Add ClickTag to Flash banner
Hey guys,
I am trying to signup with Google Adwords and want to use one of my current flash banner ads. When I try and upload the file it tells me that I need to add a ClickTAG to the flash ad.
I had a friend develop these ads for me, do I need to install a flash editor like Swishmax. And then just add the code in the right place? I only need to edit the .swf file correct?
Thanks

You will need Flash to insert a clicktag onto your banner.
This is the actionscript you need
Code:on (release) { if (clickTAG.substr(0,5) == "http:") { getURL(clickTAG, "_blank"); } }

Thanks Bannaz,
Do I edit the .swf file or the original .fla file?
Is Swishmax the best/easiest tool to use or is there another good option for editing Flash files? Macromedia?

You will need to edit the .fla file and add a button with the above actionscript.
It is possible to do this with a .swf too, but more tricky.█ Bannaz™ | Amazing Banner Ad Designer!
