I'm really pleased and appreciative that HTML and Flash ads have now been incorporated into this great module, albeit in dev mode. The previous lack of these features have been a real problem for me, so I have been eagerly watching the relevant postings.

I do have a problem though. I have replaced the released version of the ad module with the dev version so as to utilise the html ad feature for third party tags.
Creating the ad and adding the tags all works fine, and the externally served image displays OK in the preview mode. However, it will not display in any ad block, although I have no problem with displaying standard image ads in the same block.

Additionally, as soon as this html ad is set active, any other ads in the same block are then inhibited, so that the block is always empty. If I take the ad off-line the other ads in that block return OK.

I have tried using different blocks and different tags and images but always with the same results. both in IE7 and Firefox, and whether the Ad and Drupal caches are on or off.
FYI I'm using Drupal 5.1, MySql 4.1.22, PHP 5.2

I would really appreciate any help/advice as my site is live and I urgently need to get this feature working.

Title: Ad_html not displaying in blocks although standard image ads display OK » Flash ad not displaying in block

....actually, I have the same problem with Flash ads. All the features of the standard ad module work correctly for me using this dev advertisment version, but I just can't get the Flash and html ads to work, although they preview OK. I have now tried this on two different drupal installations with the same result.
Please, can anyone suggest anything?

This seems to have slipped through the cracks -- are you still experiencing this problem?
