The original author used it do to server side tracking of hits to rss feeds. There are probably a number of things you could use it for.</p> Fri, 08 Aug 2008 23:37:54 UTC https://snipplr.com/view/6196/google-analytics-without-javascript https://snipplr.com/view/6196/google-analytics-without-javascript <p>dellme, There is unfortunately no way to get around that problem at present by doing the request from the server. The ip address or location are not parameters to the tracking url but are rather recorded by the analytics server via the client ip address.^ You would have to negotiate the client to do the get request for you by putting the url in an image tag or doing it with javascript like the standard analytics javascript.</p> Sun, 28 Dec 2008 08:39:52 UTC https://snipplr.com/view/6196/google-analytics-without-javascript
