Google Analytics - PHP - Tracking trouble

My client is running a website that runs on a free ecommerce script. The scripts support says to include the google analytics code in the themes > core file i.e., there is a theme/core.php file.

In that before close HTML, he is supposed to insert google code.

# Add WYSIWYG (if found) to output
IF ($_CCFG['WYSIWYG_CLOSE']) {$_out .= $_CCFG['WYSIWYG_CLOSE'];}

# HERE IS WHERE THE CODE IS TO BE 
    
$_out .= '<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
try {
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-1234567-89");
pageTracker._trackPageview();
} catch(err) {}</script>'
   
# Close html
$_out .= '</body>'.$_nl;
$_out .= '</html>'.$_nl;

PHP:

But all we get is a blank page. Another person said this

Any idea ?!?!?!?!?!?

 

you should learn php first

1.when u add a value to a php variable you shd escape string

2. you did not ended the statement by semicolon

3. write a simple program in php that echo google analytics data on screen using variable

thanks

I hope it will help you

Try this:

<?php

// Add WYSIWYG (if found) to output
IF ($_CCFG['WYSIWYG_CLOSE']) {
$_out .= $_CCFG['WYSIWYG_CLOSE'];
}

// HERE IS WHERE THE CODE IS TO BE
   
$_out .= <<<GOOGLE
<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
try {
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-1234567-89");
pageTracker._trackPageview();
} catch(err) {}</script>
GOOGLE;
   
// Close html
$_out .= '</body>'.$_nl;
$_out .= '</html>'.$_nl;


?>
