Hi all, I am trying to add the Google Analytics external link tracker into some links on my site. The problem is, the links use javascript in two places and so no matter how I try to add the second script in it always fails. Can someone help me make sense of this?

The process is:

This is the desired output:

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=PAGEURL" onclick="javascript: pageTracker._trackPageview('share_link/PAGEURL');"><img src="facebook.png"></a>

Adding the first PAGEURL
This is how I currently display the links (without tracking)

<script language="JavaScript">

document.write( '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=' + location.href + '"><img src="facebook.png"></a>' );

</script>

Adding the second PAGEURL
This is my attempt at adding the second URL, I have tweaked the quote marks and apostrophes in loads of ways, but just can't make it work.

<script language="JavaScript">

document.write( '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=' + location.href + '" onclick="javascript: pageTracker._trackPageview('share_link/'+ location.href +'');"><imgsrc="facebook.png"></a>' );

</script>

Can anyone help?

onclick="javascript: pageTracker

the "javascript:" append should ONLY be used when the function is being called from the href attribute and NOT in event calls.

Right, so does that mean I can't actually do this?

No, just leave it off the onclick call.

Ah so something like:

<script language="JavaScript">

document.write( '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=' + location.href + '" pageTracker._trackPageview('share_link/'+ location.href +'');><imgsrc="facebook.png"></a>' );

</script>

?

You still need the onclick=
It's the javascript: you don't want.

Oh I see! So like this:

<script language="JavaScript">

document.write( '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=' + location.href + '" 

onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview("share_link/'+ location.href +'");">link</a>' );

</script>

Thanks!
