Hi Everyone,

I am looking at a usage tracker. The service requires that the first line of each page be

<script scr="blah.js></script>
<HTML>
<Head>

So this thing comes before everything. Please would you share your opinions about how this may affect Google's crawling, and crawling in general? Is it better to try Log Analysis software than to mess with pages and make Google & others' spiders unhappy?

hey Ocean, that's the classic line all of those stats programs tell you. Put it at the Very bottom of the page code and all will be fine.

This should be fine at the end of the page:

<script src="blah.js type="text/javascript"></script>
</body></html>



Don't forget to correct your typo of scr to be src instead.
