Creating Multiple External Links for one SWF File
Hello,
Does anyone know how I can manually link my .swf banner to specified links without having to edit the actual .fla file each time creating a totally new banner?
Here is my problem in more detail:
I have a bunch of affiliates who use the same exact flash banner that I created, but they all have to link to a different URL. My problem is that, whenver I have to update the banner, I then need to change the .fla file, and then create about 100 new banners to replace the old banners... this it quite time consuming and very irritating!
I'm wondering if there is a way to just link a .swf file, the way anyone would by just adding a link to a .gif banner, ie:
<a href="http://www.linkname.com"><img src="imagefile.gif"></a>
is there a way i can do it like this:
<a href="http://www.linkname.com"><img src="imagefile.swf"></a>
i know this way does NOT work.. but is there some way like this that I can use to link the same banner to different URL's?
My goal is to have ONE .swf banner for ALL my affiliates... but each one to have its own link...
if anyone knows of a way this can be done, that would be great! Please let me know..
thanks

You could use xml and create variables. I did something like this. Check my site for xml-searchable database 2. It's more complicated there than what you need but you may get some idea. Or easier the xml collapsable menu.
