Javascript document.write of utmlinker function of Google Analytics; a

Is there an alternative way to call the JavaScript utmlinker function of GA

[julienraby]

Hi everyone, quick question for JavaScript masters...

The Google Analytics JavaScript function utmlinker allow to track users that spans across multiple sites. The method that they gives us to call the function is this one:

<script type="text/javascript">
document.write('<a href="javascript:__utmLinker(\' [secondsite.com');">Log...] in Now</a>');
</script>
<noscript>
<a href=" [secondsite.com">Log...] in Now</a>
</noscript>

Now, my question is: Is there a way to call the utmlinker function without having to document.write the whole <a> tag? This is not a SE friendly way, so I would really prefer to be able to do something like:

<a href=" [secondsite.com"...] onclick="_utmlinker (this)">Log in Now</a>

Altough I'm pretty sure this won't work, I can't imagine there is no alternative to this...

Help anyone?

Thanks

You're almost there. :)

<a href="https://www.secondsite.com/" onclick="__utmLinker(this.href); return false;">Log in Now</a>
