The videos on this site are broken if the main google analytics script is blocked.

the script surrogate usually is enough but in this case it's missing something.

I've made several attempts but it seems the failure happens internally in the ActionScript of the player SWF, so there's no way to tell what needs to be changed in the surrogate

Please post links in url tags, or code tags, or select 'Do not automatically parse URLs' from the checkboxes below. There is a known bug in phpBB that truncates long links, then breaks them when the post is edited (including when you preview before submitting).

Something along the lines of this ?
Code: Select all
//ga.js
var urchinTracker = function () {}, _gaq = {
push : function () {
try {
if (arguments[0][0] == '_link')
window.location.href = arguments[0][1]
} catch (excpt) {}
}
}, _gat = {
_createTracker : function () {},
_getTracker : function () {
return {
__noSuchMethod__ : function () {},
_link : function (z) {
if (z)
location.href = z;
},
_linkByPost : function () {
return true;
},
_getLinkerUrl : function (z) {
return z;
},
_trackEvent : function () {}
}
}
};
//urchin.js
var urchinTracker = function () {}, _gat = {
_getTracker : function () {
return {
__noSuchMethod__ : function () {},
_link : function (z) {
if (z)
location.href = z;
},
_linkByPost : function () {
return true;
},
_getLinkerUrl : function (z) {
return z;
},
_trackEvent : function () {}
}
}
}
I gave a quick look and came up with this script. No idea if it works though.
Anyway, maybe Google should really get a prize for making tracking code look like shellcode! And good way to consume CPU cycles on my 9 year old computer.
