     Coding:
     

<script type="text/javascript"> var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXXX-X']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); </script>

• 2. to embed tracking for hyperlinks use the onClick() method for each link
     Syntax: <a href="#" onClick="_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', category, action, label])

• category (required)
The name you supply for the group of objects you want to track.
