Question

how can i grab the arguments of a javascript function?

below is my code,

<script type="text/javascript"> 
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-45-9");
pageTracker._trackPageview();pageTracker._addTrans("3128", "", "20.4600", "0.0000", "8.1900", "SFO", "CA", "US");
pageTracker._addItem("3128", "23317", "Cheese ", "", "6.2900", "1");
pageTracker._addItem("3128", "23318", "Lazzaroni", "", "1.9900", "1");
pageTracker._addItem("3128", "23316", "Italian Food", "", "3.9900", "1");
pageTracker._trackTrans();
</script>

For the code above, I want to grab the arguments of the functions pageTracker._addItem() to use it in my javascript code. How would i do that?

The problem is I do not have access to the complete source code, but only i can add some javascript and html to it, this site is hosted at network solutions, and they do not provide access to their code for some plans…. so i need to grab the arguments of the javascript function above and use it my javascript, which i can add to the code…

Thanks

Use this:

GAitems = [];
GAitems.oldAdd = pageTracker._addItem;
pageTracker._addItem = function() {
  GAitems.push(arguments);
  GAitems.oldAdd.apply(pageTracker, arguments)
}​

And all the added items will be available in the GAitems array for you (and they are also added to Google Analytics correctly).
