On-Page Event Tracking (Website only)

The Webtrends JavaScript tag has the ablity to automatically track a predefined list of events on a page.

When you enable onclick event tracking using these, Webtrends identifies each on-page event using the WT.dl parameter. This parameter, which is passed to the dcsMultiTrack function automatically enabled in your Tag Builder tag, provides a unique event value for each type of on-page activity.

Webtrends Unified Event Model:

        var dcs = new Webtrends.dcs();
        dcs.init( {
