Acquiring Additional Information

Query string variables may be added to a JavaScript request to collect additional measurements when a request is made.

These variables may be added manually or by script in the page itself.

Additional information that can be acquired from a page may be added to the embedded object via script using the following code as an example:

<!-- BEGIN REFERENCE PAGE TAG-->
<script language="javascript">
var vlc = "0" //Capture Link Click  1=TRUE, 0=FALSE
var v = {};
v["_pn"] = "Application Form";
v["_1"] = “99.99”;
v["_2"] = "visa";
</script>

<script language="javascript" src=”https://www.myserver.com/path/to/zig.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<noscript>

<img src="/path/to/zag.gif?Log=1&v_jd=1" border="0" width="1" height="1"/>
</noscript>
<!-- END REFERENCE PAGE TAG-->

In this example, the script variables for v_1 and v_2 can be derived from another function within your web page. The variables have been inserted as examples. In addition to the baseline measurements acquired with each request, the following extended measurements would be acquired with the request of the URL above:
