HTML5 Ads Validator Javascript Errors and Missing Assets

Community Beginner ,
Jan 20, 2022 Jan 20, 2022

Hi,

I created HTML5 ads for 6Sense and when I check the validator, the ad fails to render, I have missing assets, and 2 Javascript errors. I've tried everything and nothing works. It has to be something in the template when exporting. When I test the ad in the browser, it works fine, but when I check the ad in the validator and on 6sense, it doesn't show, and I have the same errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Marley,

 

This is Roy, the developer of the HTML5 ad validator tool that you've used. I re-ran your creative through the scanner, and this is what I've found:

https://www.advalify.io/html5-ad-validator/s8e9w-ce605-8e49d

 

Your creative is not rendered due to a JavaScript error "Cannot read property 'getContext' of undefined at a.b._parseData". Furthermore, your image returns a 404 because you've used a capital in your link. The image is in the folder "Images", while you're linking to "/images/..."

the validator is not "seeing" your images content (or your images folder).

Yeah for some reason and I don't know why. The images are in the zip folder but it won't recognize it and it gives me 2 javascript errors. Shoud I post my code here? Thanks - Marlena

that's not a coding error.  it's a problem between your zip file and the validator.

 

you need to query about that validator (as long as you're certain exactly that file name/ext is in the images folder).

wait.

 

to make certain you're uploading the correct files, save your fla to a new (empty) directory.  publish your fla (to that directory).  everything in that directory (other than the fla) needs to be uploaded without editing any file types or names.

Okay so I did what you suggested and I still get 1 error when I upload my ads to adwords. Should I take out this is the HTML file  "<script src="https://code.createjs.com/1.0.0/createjs.min.js"></script>" this seems to be the problem now.

Thank you so much! I actually was able to change the script to: 

<script src="https://s0.2mdn.net/ads/studio/cached_libs/createjs_2019.11.15_min.js"></script>

and it worked!

 

All ads are running smoothly! I really appreciate all of the amazing support!

Furthermore, your image returns a 404 because you've used a capital in your link. The image is in the folder "Images", while you're linking to "/images/..." (with a lowercase i). The server therefore returns a 404. See here:
