tracking the click in flash

[vishal.sonar]

Hi Gurus,

I need to have this.... I have a requirement where I have to track the mouse clicks in flash swf of different users and store the result in a database.

So that I can find out how many users have visited which section and how many times. And I have to make it working inside the flash only.

Right now I am using FLASH MX 2004, if it can be possilble.

Please help guys.

Thank you.

make it working inside the flash only.

not possible, server side script required to save to database

hey are you sure about it...?? is there any other way i can do it

are you sure

would i lie to you

Flash, on its own, cannot save to external files

it can only save to a shared object
shared objects are stored on the users hard drive

although it might be possible if you use php + flash right?

you can track how many times your buttons and which buttons in your flash movies etc have been clicked by using google analytics.. (they do all the work for you)...

check out www.google.co.uk/analytics and register there

also have a look at
