Recommendations for an Open Source flash ad network to serve to myspace?

I have a client looking to deploy advertising to the websites of their subsidiaries.

Then they threw in the wrench that some of their subsidiaries use Myspace for their primary web presence, so t...

How do deal with OpenX XMLRPC authentication / sessions

I am having trouble with Openx; here is the issue OpenX::Services::Base.connection returns the class variable @@connection which is populated by OpenX::Services::Base.connection if it has previously not been initialized.

openx 2.8.1 "Session ID is invalid" when using XMLRPC api + ruby openx gem

Occasionally when accessing OpenX 2.8.1 via its XMLRPC api (using the ruby 'openx' gem), I will get this error message: Session ID is invalid I cannot find anything in OpenX's forums about this, nor via some Google searching.

Ruby On Rails & XMLRPC w/ OpenX

I am using xmlrpc to make a rails app communicate with an OpenX ad server. The OpenX ad server starts a session on the 1st request and associates the session with the class, not an instance of the class.

OpenX ads hacked

We use OpenX for serving ads on our websites. Received a complaint (with a screenshot) from one of our clients - "Why do I get the ad on your homepage linking to an adult site?".

Frustrating XML Error, Flex, & OpenX

Why do ad manager add a lot of parameters to URLs

Say for instance one random stackoverflow ad : http://ads.stackoverflow.com/a.aspx?Task=Click&amp;ZoneID=4&amp;CampaignID=474&amp;AdvertiserID=5&amp;BannerID=408&amp;SiteID=1&amp;RandomN...

How to handle banner capping in video ads?

We all know that when serving normal ads (with document.write and all that) it's easy to setup cookies on the client's machine even if the ad server is on a remote domain (include a pixel 1x1 image when logging the ad impression and that will do the trick). My question is: how can i handle this capping process in a flash environment? My...
