Google Analytics E-Commerce code

[ThePhoenix]

Hello,

I've found this forum while searching for help to track my E-Commerce information from a thank you page.

I'm looking to add this piece of code on my page:

<form style="display:none;" name="utmform">
<textarea id="utmtrans">UTM:T|[order-id]|[affiliation]|
[total]|[tax]| [shipping]|[city]|[state]|[country] UTM:I|[order-id]|[sku/code]|[productname]|[category]|[price]|
[quantity] </textarea>
</form>

but as I don't have access to the ASP.net code, I need to generate it from a javascript code. I was thinking of a document.write but I heard/read that you can't have 2 in the same page, and I'm already using a document.write for the affiliate network tracking code.

Any recommendation?

Also, I did try to generate the code for the document.write for this textarea and I wasn't able to come up with the write sequence. I would appreciate if someone could help me. All the elements in the [] are variables so I guess I should be using + between them.

Here's what I came up with so far, but it fails...

document.write("textarea id=\"utmtrans\">UTM:T|"+MyOrderID+"|[affiliation]|
[total]|[tax]| [shipping]|[city]|[state]|[country]
</textarea>");

Where MyOrderID is a variable that contains the value that should be in the sequence.

Thanks

Heya Phoenix. Welcome to TSDN!

You can use document.write() as many times as you want, as long as you call it *before* your page is done loading (i.e., in a script tag somewhere before the closing </body> tag in your HTML).

While your page is loading, the document is open for writing, and document.write() works as expected. Once the page finishes loading, however, the browser 'closes' the document. In order to document.write() after the document has been closed, the document must be opened, which flushes anything that was already there.
