HBX Websidestory Tracking / Klicks zählen

[wilkman]

Hallo,

ich habe ein Problem und hoffe, ihr könnt mir helfen.
Wir wollen unsere Flashbanner tracken, d.h. die klicks der User auf den Banner zählen.

Als Tracking/MArketing-Tool benutzen wir Websidestory HBX Analytics.

Wenn wir die Banner per clicktag ansteuern

on (release) {
getURL(_root.clicktag, "_blank");
}

dann funzt alles gut.

Wenn wir nun aber die Klicks zählen wollen, kriegen wir irgendwie keine richtige Lösung hin. Im HTML Code wird dies normalerweise über die LinkID (lid) getrackt. Auch bei der Flasheinbindung muss die lid gesetzt werden.

Laut Anleitung soll das wohl so funktionieren:

Tracking the Flash object click event
To detect link tracking for your Flash movie, you need to use the HBX function, _hbLink(). This function enables HBX Active Viewing to create a semi-transparent overlay to display the information about the link in the underlying Flash movie frame. Using a standard definition of the parameters for the function causes this overlay to occupy the same dimensions and coordinates as the linked object. When you activate the Flash overlay function of HBX Active Viewing and click on the link in the frame of the Flash movie, an overlay is created in the browser directly on top of the button with the link information.

This function requires the link ID (lid), and page coordinates (x and y), width, and height of the Flash object (as provided by the Macromedia Flash application). Optionally, you can also provide the link position (lpos).

_hbLink ('lid', 'lpos', 'x, y, width, height')

The parameters of this function must be manually added to Flash ActionScript for all Flash objects in the movie that you want to track.

In the ActionScript example below, the on(release) event linked to the button in the movie launches the _hbLink function, where MyMovie_Yes is the name of the link ID and left is the named location of the link (lpos).

The coordinates are relative to the upper left corner in the Flash movie (the file with the .swf extension). To find and copy the coordinates easily in the Macromedia Flash development application, click on a Flash movie button you would like to track and copy/paste the button coordinates (W, H, X, Y) from the properties window to the _hbLink ('lid', 'lpos', 'X, Y, W, H') function call in the ActionScript code window below.

In technical terms, if coordinates are listed as (130, 172, 113, 38), then 130 is location in pixels of the button from the left of the screen, 172 is location in pixels of the button from the top of the screen, 113 is the width of the button, and 38 is the height of the button.

on (release)

{

getURL("javascript:_hbLink('MyMovie_Yes','left','1 30,172,113,38')");

}

When you publish the Flash movie into a HTML page, the getURL calls are translated during the Flash publish process into anchor tags as follows:

<a href="javascript:_hbLink('MyMovie_Yes','left','130 ,172,113,38')"></a>

To determine the overlay positions, HBX Active Viewing parses the published HTML to find the anchor tags and to extract the button positions.

If you do not plan to use the lpos variable when coding the _hbLink() function, ensure that you send the lpos variable the empty string, that is, '' Following the above example, if you do not use left as a value for the lpos variable, use the following code:

on (release)

{

getURL("javascript:_hbLink('MyMovie_Yes','','130,1 72,113,38')");

}


schön und gut, aber wo binde ich in diesem Fall dien Link eine? Gibt es kein clickTag mehr?

Langsam verzweifeln wir. Könnt ihr mir helfen. Vielen Dank schon mal im voraus.
