We added Google Analytics to our website using GAHelper (ISAPI filter added through IIS) and ever since doing this, when anyone posts it adds the text below to EVERY post. We have used this filter on many other sites without any problems, but for some reason it does this in the forum. I'm not sure exactly which version we are running, but it is probably 9.xxx. Any ideas?

< ="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" ="text/">_uacct = "UA-XXXXXXX"; urchinTracker();

Also, here is the page source from the Preview Post page.

<table width="98%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" align="center">
          <tr>
            <td>

              <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" height="250">
                <tr>
                  <td class="text" valign="top">
                    <!--// /* Message body -->
                    Test< ="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" ="text/">_uacct = "UA-XXXXXX";
urchinTracker();



                    <!-- Message body ''"" */ //-->
                  </td>
                </tr>
            </table></td>

          </tr>
        </table>

It looks like the ISAPI filter injects code into each page that goes through the ISAPI filter.

The RTE WYSIWYG Editor uses a page to allow the content to be editable rather than a text area. The ISAPI filter is injecting this code into the post editor.

The only solution would be to disable the RTE WYSIWYG Editor for your forum and use the standard text area editor. This can be disabled from the admin area.

Hi,

I found the best way to deal with this was through the default.asp page.

Adding an include i.e. -

<% Option Explicit %>

Then creating the analytics.asp with just google analytics code within.

Now when you load default.asp and the server compiles, it shall add the analytics info to the page.

Hope this helps.

I'm using an ISAPI filter for Google Analytics and that is probably why it didn't work for me.
