We have been doing a workaround for supporting HTML5 ads created with Swiffy.
Because the URL field in HTML ads has been deprecated, our workaround is now broken.
The workaround was:
1. create a generic HTML banner
2. paste the Swiffy/HTML5 code in
3. find the line in the Swiffy-generated HTML5 code where the Flash ClickTAG (or similar) variable is set, and give it a value of {clickurl} (to substitute in the Revive clickurl macro.):
stage.setFlashVars("clickTag={clickurl}");
4. Fill the URL into the blank
Now, the URL blank is gone. We've tried putting the target URL right after the {clickurl} in the code, like this:

Now, the URL blank is gone. We've tried putting the target URL right after the {clickurl} in the code, like this:
stage.setFlashVars("clickTag={clickurl}http://targeturl.goes.here");
but somehow the swiffy-generated code seems to malform the resulting link so it doesn't work.
Any ideas?
