Once the tag is on the page, the tag's event handler code watches for links directed at PDFs, DOCs, and other file types. (You have to specify, when you build the tag, what download file types you want it to track.) When the tag senses a click or ondown on one of the PDF links, it fires the tag which records a Download event in the SDC logs, along with the filename that was downloaded. For all download hits, SDC will add a parameter "WT.dl=20" that you can use for filtering download events, if you wish. It works great for PDF files.

Just wondering. We did some testing with the JS file generated by the Tagbuilder. Did anyone noticed that it is not working correctly on Firefox. Strange thing is that when we test the examples given by Tagbuilder they do generate results when running them on IE. But not on Firefox. Any ideas? Kind regards, Finn Hi,

We would of course like to give credit to Outsiders but it's probably Insiders, since Insiders have been focusing on this tag all along. I would bet, however, that all the ruckus on forums.webtrends.com over the past months made a big difference in internal support for taking it outside in an ultra-usable form, because they saw how excited their users were and how much it was being adopted, adapted, corrupted, improved, and generally democratized.
