Re: [uk-netmarketing] Flash and hits

[Sam Carrington]

There are a number of ways you can get metrics on how people have used

your flash movie - you can attach getURL actions to events which call

scripts, giving a "204: No Response" or similar. These scripts can pick up

variables from the flash. Also, careful use of the LoadMovie action can

both improve useability a bit (lets face it a "Flash only" site is not

going to be that navigable...) and allow the user session to be

constructed from more than one request for data.


I wont get too detailed, 'cos this isn't a flash dev list - although

chinwag do have one ;-) 


[Sam says: yup, and for more flash chat than you can shake a stick at,

check out http://www.chinwag.com/flasher including new flasher-jobs list]
