Subject: Javascript error "Urchintracker is undefined"
I'm getting a javascript error that says "Urchintracker is undefined"
I'm clueless as to how/why I'm getting this error. I can browse to the
Javascript file just fine in the browser. What's going on? Anyone?

<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js"
type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
_uacct = "UA-332214-4";
urchinTracker();
</script>

The above call is placed right after the body tag since I'm trying to
track external links with this:

onClick="javascript:urchinTracker ('/downloads/curriculumplanning'); "

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Subject: Re: Javascript error "Urchintracker is undefined"
I also am getting the "urchinTracker is not defined" error on ever
website containing the analytics code. As an example I have 2 sites
(http://www.agesofwar.com/ and http://www.webcutter.com/) and all are
returning this error in Firefox. Even other sites that are not mine are
returning the error as well.

I tried copying and pasting the code from
http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js directly into my page and
there seems to be a javascript error in the urchin.js file. The error
is in the for clause in the following function. My javascript console
is returning this error on that line.. "missing ; before statement"

function _uEC(s) {
var n="";
if (!s || s=="") return "";
for (var i=0;i<s.length;i++) {if (FALSE(FALSE)==" ") n+="+"FALSE FALSE
n+=FALSE(FALSE)FALSE}
return n;

}

Any ideas?

After rewriting their function to the following the error went away...

function _uEC(s) {
  var n="";
  if (!s || s=="") return "";
  for (var i=0;i<s.length;i++) {
  if (s.charAt(i)==" ")
    n+="+";
  else {n+=s.charAt(i);}
  }
  return n;

}

I'm hoping someone from Google checks this out since this is affecting
everyone using Firefox browsers.

Thanks Caleb

I'm presuming Google Analytics will fix this pretty soon, but if it
hasn't happened yet, you can grab a modified version of urchin.js here:
  http://giantrobot.co.nz/gr/2006/11/27/urchintracker-not-defined/

This is just a "normal" urchin.js with the modified _uEC function.

Hope it helps someone :)

Seems to have been fixed in current urchin.js (or Firefox fixed it
their end)

http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js
