Question

I need to do multi domain tracking. The old version of GA said to include

onclick="pageTracker._link(this.href); return false;"

in the tag. The new code to include in the tag is

onclick="_gaq.push(['_link', 'https://www.xyz.com/whatever']);

can I change the domain to this.href like the old code so that I can do a universl replace? ie.

onclick="_gaq.push(['_link', this.href]);

I am not familiar with the [] in the function call.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Answer 1

Yes, this should work. We do something nearly identical on one of our sites.

onclick="_gaq.push(['_link', this.href]); return false;"

Don’t forget to finish it with the return false as in your first example. Here is a test case that should work the same as GA suggests – http://jsbin.com/#preview
