Perhaps I'm missing something (not totally awake yet)... but
don't try:

[area href=flypage]

Instead, use:

[area href="[cgi clickcode]"]

IC looks for the page where you keep normal pages, then, if not found,
it will look for a product code/sku of the same name.  If it exist, it
is displayed using flypage (but the URI will show the product code, not 
flypage).
