Problem rendering Google Analytics code

[knkk]

I am trying to include this code in the footer.template files of all blog templates:

<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-#*$!#*$!-x");
pageTracker._trackPageview();
} catch(err) {}</script>

However, the actual blogs are rendering it like this:

<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 catch(err) </script>

with this error also displayed:

I'd be quite grateful for any help!

you can copy the google code to external js called 'script.js' and upload it to your server. Then place code to your site

<script src="http://www.yoursite.com/script.js" type="text/javascript">

hope it works

Thanks a lot, tkien!
