getting data to display ads

[m2babaey]

Hi
I want to code a JS file that enables me to give a code to my users to place on their site so that I'll display ads on their site. the code they will place on their site is like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
partnerid = "3832";
keyword="host";
backgroundcolor="FFFFFF";
width="336";
height="280";
scriptid="4ebb512"
<script id="4ebb512" type="text/javascript" src="[URL unfurl="true"]http://domain.com/WebFiles/display_ad.js">[/URL]

But how that display_ad.js file (hosted on my server) will collect the data in the code (like height, width, partnerid,etc) to decide what to desplay?
I really need it. any help or refering to a tutorial is highly appreciated
thanks in advance

I'm guessing you've not done any research whatsoever on this, or you'd do it how every other ad provider in the world does it - with a 1x1 image with parameters that you pick up on.

I suggest you take a look at how they do it - it's common, and it works.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Or you could use an iframe - also with parameters to place your ad.

Don't forget to take into account those without JS support (use noscript).

Hope this helps,
