    Flash Tracking with Variables - Instructions for creating the FLASH files

    Introduction

    Macromedia and DoubleClick have worked together on a new way to track clicks on FLASH banner ads. The click tracking string allows advertisers to know how many times a user has clicked on their FLASH banner and to direct them to the destination URL.

    Previously, the click tracking string had to be embedded into the Flash movie (swf file) as a click command.

    The problem with this old method is that each time the destination URL has to be modified (for whatever reason), the FLASH File has to be sent back to the design agency to be modified.

    The new method, only available for FLASH 4 or above, uses variables to pass the click tracking string into Flash movies. As a result, instead of modifying the FLASH file itself, we will only change the variable in the Rich Media Field of the DoubleClick DART system, not in the swf movie.
