Our system strips out the stage color, leaving it transparent. Instead add in a colored image background.

If you are using Actionscript 1 or Actionscript 2:
Banner button needs to have this EXACT actionscript.

}

on (release) {
   getURL (_level0.clickTAG,"_blank");
}

on (release) {
   getURL (_level0.clickTAG2,"_blank");
}

on (release) {
   getURL (_level0.clickTAG3,"_blank");
}

If you are using Actionscript 3:
Your button must have an instance name of “btn” for this code to work.

SINGLE CLICK-THRU
var url:String = "";
url = this.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG;

btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onClick);

function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void{
    navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url), "_blank");
}

 

MULTIPLE CLICK-THRUS
var url:String = "";
var url2:String = "";
var url3:String = "";
url = this.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG;
url2 = this.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG2;
url3 = this.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG3;

btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onClick);
btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onClick2);
btn3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onClick3);

function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void{
