   * This code may not work correctly if you're doing direct-to-checkout (''cart=checkout'') links originating from outside the site being tracked by Google Analytics. For instance, if you have ''cart=checkout'' links in an email, the referrer or campaign may not be maintained. If this is an issue for you please [[http://forum.foxycart.com/|let us know]].
   * While ''http:'' ''href''s will work for add-to-cart requests, the redirect from ''http'' to ''https'' will cause problems for GA. Ensure that all link ''href'' and form ''action'' attributes go to ''https'' URLs.

+  * <wrap important>2011-08-08: Critical change to the include code</wrap>. Details on [[http://forum.foxycart.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=4924&page=1#Item_7|our forum]]. The important pieces are:<code>On the cart, change this line:
+  window.location.hash = fc_json.custom_fields['ga'];
+to this:
+  window.location.hash = fc_json.custom_fields['ga'].replace( /\&amp;/g, '&' );
+And this line:
+  var href_link = $(this).attr('href') + fc_json.custom_fields['ga'];
+to this:
+  var href_link = $(this).attr('href') + fc_json.custom_fields['ga'].replace( /\&amp;/g, '&' );
+On the checkout, change this line:
+  window.location.hash = fc_json.custom_fields['ga'];
+to this:
+  window.location.hash = fc_json.custom_fields['ga'].replace( /\&amp;/g, '&' );
+On the receipt, change this:
+  window.location.hash = fc_json.custom_fields['ga'];
+to:
+  window.location.hash = fc_json.custom_fields['ga'].replace( /\&amp;/g, '&' );
+</code>This has been changed in all the examples below.
 ===== Setup Your Tracking Code =====
 <note tip>The steps below are for the "standard" *box (like the default Thickbox/Foxybox) is used, or in other situations where you're loading the cart inside an iframe. If you're displaying the cart full screen, using a ''JSON(P)'' based cart, or are otherwise doing something custom you may need to modify this code, depending on your needs. As always, test test test.</note>
