Hello,
Thanks you for the help.
I noticed that you can select links by the value of the href and I
believe this will be best. I will be applying the google analytics
script to over 30 websites and I really don't want to be editing each
link to add a class to them or the forms since it will take forever.
I was wondering if this was the best way:
$("a[href*=mydomain]").click(function(){
alert("mydomain");
});
$("a[href*=mybookingengine]").click(function(){
alert("bookingengine");
});
However, for my outgoing links I want to tag those is they are not
mydomain.com or mybookingengine.com. How will I accomplish that?
Also, how can I verify wIith jquery that all the links within the
website linking to itself start with the www.
Thanks for your help.
