Initial Code 
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
	mc.buttonMode = true;
	mc.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, trackEventHandler, false, 0, true );

function isProductionMode():Boolean
{
	var runtimeEvironment:String = Capabilities.playerType;

	if (runtimeEvironment == "External" || runtimeEvironment == "StandAlone"){
		return false;
	} else {
		return true;
	}
}

function trackEventHandler( e:Event ):void
{
	//If the Complied Flash Player is on the HTML page, give it a Page View
	if( isProductionMode() ){
	    navigateToURL(new URLRequest("analytics._trackPageView()"), '_self');
	}
}
Initial URL 

                                

                                                            

                                    

                                        

                                        Initial Description
                                        

                                    

                                    
There are many ways to tweak this code but hopefully this will get you all started.  Whenever I'm tracking PageViews or Events for something like Google Analytics, I don't want navigateToURL() to interfere while I'm developing.  These two functions will keep navigateToURL() from trying to load a Browser page until the SWF is loaded into an HTML page

                                

                                                            

                                    

                                        

                                        Initial Title
