Hi all:

I've been trying to do as the client requested : redirect to campaign page then to destination page once a customer clicks on the top banner in swf format.

You can check what's been done at :http://ausdcf.org

If you are using Firefox, Chrome or Safari, I suspect you can reach the destination page.

However, if you are using IE or Opera, I doubt it.

I think to cause of such a weird problem is:

The swf ojbects don't have a link to url, SO

I have to hack the theme template file like this :

<div id="header">';

/*
     * A quick and dirty way to put some swf into PHP, and rotate among them ...
     */ 

    //available banners
    $banners = array(
                         'http://localhost/smf/flash/banner_fertalign_1.swf',
                         'http://localhost/smf/flash/banner_fertalign_2.swf',
                         'http://localhost/smf/flash/banner_fertalign_3.swf'
                    );

    //get random banner
    srand((double) microtime() * 1000000);
    $rand = rand(0,count($banners)-1);

    echo '<div id="top_banner_clickable">';
    echo     '<div id="top_banner_wrapper">';
    echo         '<object width="400" height="60">';
    echo             '<param name="wmode" value="transparent">';
    echo             '<embed wmode="transparent" src="'.$banners[$rand].'" ';
    echo             'width="400" height="60" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"';
    echo             'pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" />';
    echo         '</object>';
    echo     '</div>';
    echo '</div>';

And the related jQuery code is like this:

/* master.js */

$(document).ready(function()
{
    $("#top_banner_clickable").click(function()
    {
        window.location ="http://ausdcf.org/campaign/";
    });
});

I absolutely know nothing about Flash or embedded objects. I guess that's the cause of this problem. Plus, I don't know why it works with some browsers but not all...

I even tried to add a z-index to the wrapper div in css like this:

#top_banner_clickable
{
    z-index : 100;
}

No this wouldn't do, either...

Is there a way to go around this issue?

Many thanks in advance.
