Flash banner link to url

Ihave a flash banner running but am having trouble getting it to link to a url. I tried listing the url in the banner admin, no luck. So I added the link to the html code for the banner (see below) no luck.

<a href="/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=17"> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" border="0" data="includes/templates/home/flash/4squares.swf" width="128" height="148"> <param name="movie" value="includes/templates/home/flash/4squares.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high"><param name="BGCOLOR" value="#ffffff"> <param name="menu" value="false"> </object> </a>

Any ideas?

Flash swf files are not the same as a image and as such, can't be link in that manner.

Flash links are done ether by hard programing the link in a button within the flash or by hard programing a clicktag code to the flash. Clicktags allow for the link to be added to the html coding.

ClickTag;

whty.swf?clickTAG=http://warehousetoyou.net
```If nether of the above was designed into the banner, then it's a nice move.
