General Specifications

This following presents a guideline on how Adform standard rich media tags should be edited to count clicks in standard website ad management systems. Adform ad serving uses standard rich media javascript tags:

					<script language="javascript" src="http://track.adform.net/adfscript/?bn=43547"></script>
					
				

In order to track clicks follow the procedure below:

1. Create a click counter in your ad management system (example: "http://www.youradsystem.com/?redirect=").
2. Insert ";click=" and "http://www.youradsystem.com/?redirect=" into the redirect string.
3. In case click URL must be encoded, please use „;encodedclick=“ instead of „;click=“.

The resulting tag should look similar to the following example:

					<script language="javascript" src="http://track.adform.net/adfscript/?bn=43547;click=http://www.youradsystem.com/?redirect="></script>
					 
		        

"http://www.youradsystem.com/?redirect=http://www.google.com" is merely an example of a redirect url. When the url is entered into a browser it counts a click in your ad management system and redirect to http://www.google.com.
By inserting ";click=http://www.youradsystem.com/?redirect=" in the Adform javascript tag the Adform system returns an ad, which (when clicked) redirects to your ad management system, which again redirects to Adform where the final redirect is performed according to the Adform database value.

Note: Add "http//*.adform.net" under "allowed domains".
