Closable Banner Ads

[robototitico]

Hi,

I have seen closable banner ads on websites like the New York Times and O2.

Does anyone know where I can find code for such banner ads?

I would like to put a screen-width ad on the top of my site, that my visitors could close.

Do you mean this kind of thing? » Pageear - free peel away ad Flash & Actionscript Developer » » Blog Archiv

I loke those Page Ear ads,

But what I was thinking of was more like the big rectangular ones that are on youtube sometimes, and you can click a button in the corner to close them.View attachment 311

Hmm,

I know the ones you are talking about, I am not an expert in flash, etc, but I would reckon they are based upon z-indexing and the close option is delivered by flash rather than JS... I may be totally wrong though

... and they are very cool.

best of luck finding out how they do it, and report back!

Would a simple Jquery .hide() or .slideUp() do the trick?
