Click Tag for Google Adwords

[Winnie 0 Likes (Newbie)]

I am doing HTML5 banner for Google Ad Words.

When I add click tag , I am using button element ( binding the id into on click event ) instead of using a href and add the click tag directly

(eg a href=javascript:window.open(window.clickTag)).

Is anyone use button instead of hyperlink and validated by Google AdWords?

I am using a <div> wrapper with id. But read this:

We don't need that click handler anymore, maybe that's why You can't validate Your ad.

Thanks, Oliver. 

I didn't add any ExitApi.js and I only have onclick event to call clickTag in new window.

I just validated with https://h5validator.appspot.com/adwords/asset  and all passed.

You don't need any clickTag for Adwords.  Adwords makes the entire banner clickable by default.
