I checked the Developer Exchange (and searched on Google) for a CF banner ad
system, but it the people who developed these seem to have gone out of
business or moved on to other things. Does anyone know of a relatively
sophisticated system (counts impressions and allows campaigns) at a reasonable
price?

The closest so far was CF_Banner by Oleani, but the Oleani web site hasn't
been updated in two years, emails to "support" go unanswered, and the phone
number on the web site actually is for the company that hosts the web site. I
didn't feel like sending $200 into cyberspace based on that.

I also saw one for $1,000, but I might be able to write one myself in a week.
If I had a week.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

I looked at Raymond Camden's program, but it comes up short for me in a couple
key areas.

With the Harlan ad server, you're supposed to paste the code for an ad
campaign into each page. My site has a couple hundreds of pages so I want a
single piece of code that can be administered from the backend. I want to be
able to assign ads to a particular set of pages rather than run them
everywhere. And I want to let advertisers buy a set number of impressions, as
opposed to just counting them. The defunct Oleani application might have done
this.

I could try to adapt Camden's ad server, but his coding is so much more
sophisticated than my own I might be wasting my time.
