Google Analytics not working and Spoke with Google.

karynn Total Posts: 69 Joined: 2008-02-07 Ignore user	Okay, so I got rid of the error by using a combination of Magento’s code and Google’s code: <!-- BEGIN GOOGLE ANALYTICS CODE --> <script type="text/javascript"> var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www."); [removed]("\<script src=\'" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js\' type=\'text/javascript\'>\<\/script>" ); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("' . $this->getAccount() . '"); pageTracker._initData(); pageTracker._trackPageview(); </script> <!-- END GOOGLE ANALYTICS CODE --> So, the part the says “[removed]” above is document . write (no spaces)! Now I’ll wait to see if I get any data… Signature Heritage Gallery Fine Art & Frames

"https://ssl." : "http://www."); document . write(unescape("<script src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'></script>")); <script type="text/javascript"> var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("' . $this->getAccount() . '"); pageTracker._initData(); pageTracker._trackPageview(); </script> <!-- END GOOGLE ANALYTICS CODE --> Then Refresh your Cache and make sure your source looks okay.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /nfs/c01/h04/mnt/44763/domains/shop.halloweenhallway.com/html/app/code/core/Mage/GoogleAnalytics/Block/Ga.php on line 133 Any other ideas? Could it be a different configuration I have that is causing the problem? Maybe this is a symptom not the cause?

So, I’ll just go fetch my file directly… Please see attached. (Make a copy/rename your original file, do not overwrite it!)
