Hi All,

My site has iframed forms from third party site, which i have no access to their code or GA account.
I want to track this iframed content for adwords purposes.

Is there a way I can do this?

I went through this:
code.google.com/apis/analytics/docs/tracking/gaTrackingSite.html#trackingIFrames

Is this the answer to my question or does it only apply if I have control over both domains?

my primary goal is to know if the iframe loaded correctly. but im not sure its possible, since the JS will only call for it, and not verify if the load was successful.

so a secondary goal is to track the number of iframe loads.

I've worked on Google Analytics for a long while so I'm quite well versed with it. But I've never come across such a requirement before so I want you to apply GA with success.

The two things popped into my mind with your requirement is event tracking and virtual page views. Both are possible with Google Analytics. Use this presentation as a guide. I use this set of presentations all the time when in doubt. Also Google is updating them often.
