    Default Flash ad weirdness.....help!

    I've created a flash ad with an action script (simple on-release event and the
    URL) and it tests fine for me, but when submitted to the publisher that uses a
    CMS to create their web pages, they claim that the ad is generating a series of
    uncontrolled pop-ups. The publiser isn't forthcoming with the details (browser
    and platform info) and it leaves me with a very frustrating problem of trying
    to replicate the same situation, but my tests have been without problems.
    QUESTION: is there an incompatibility with certain CMS software? or is there
    something I need to do to better prep my files?
    See: [url]http://www.dcampeau.com/GQ-Button-Ad/GQ-Button-ads.htm[/url]
    Any help or suggestions appreciated! And if you do have a problem with the ad,
    please let me know with browser, v# and platform. Thanks!

    Interesting. I would say if your ad used an "onmouseenter" or "onrollover",
    uncontrolled popups might happen in a CMS, depending on how they display
    different <div>s.

    If you are just using
    on (release) {
    getURL("http://blah", "_blank");
    }
    - you are simply using what a lot of other ad creators have used.

    Definitely request more information about this from the publisher... I didn't
    have any problems with your ad. It behaved fine on it's testing page and
    popped up a window when clicked.
