[textile] Javascript in links?

Sorry, I missed a few single quotes around 'http://' when I posted. See revised code above.

Hate to say this but it’s still not picking up the external links.

So this is where it ends without real access to the site…

Thanks for all the help Robert.

Well, prehaps wet’s code:

$("a[href^='http://']").addClass('external');

Should really be:

$("a[@href^=http://]").addClass('external');

And now it should add the class ;)

This is what we came up with to add a new class to all links which do not point to the own site (www.example.com in this case):

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function() {
$("a[href^='http://']").each(function(){if($(this).attr('href').indexOf('http://www.example.com') == -1) $(this).addClass('external');})
$('a.external').click(function(){pageTracker._trackPageview(this.href);})
})
</script>

There’s certainly room for improvement, but it works as intended.

In case it’s not clear, the javascript added to the links is used by Google Analytics to track clicked outbound links.
