Google Analytics Online

16 Nov 2005

Well, it looks like Google has finally started feeding data into Analytics.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to support Safari.

That’s annoying. I suppose I’ll fire up Firefox and see how newburyportion.com is doing.

Update: As of this morning (17 Nov), I can’t get into Google Analytics using Firefox. The moment after I log in, I get redirected to the search page. Granted, I’m now logged in, but I can’t see the Analytics control panel. Ah, growing pains. Even really big companies have them.

    The charts/graphs work in safari if you apply a custom style sheet in the preferences and then remove it!

    Koorb, I haven’t found a way to apply a custom stylesheet yet.

    Fortunately, Google’s finally started allowing me back in to the site (as of about 1:30 PM EST).

    I’m running system 10.4.3 and safari 2.0.2 – under safari preferences on the advanced tab there’s a section to select a style sheet – I use a style sheet that does a bit of rudimentary ad blocking but I noticed that if I turn it of then on the flash graphs start to load, and I think vice-versa, turning the style sheets on then off. So it possibly has to do with changes to the DOM triggering them to load?

    Ah! That explains it. I was looking for a custom stylesheet on Google’s page. (Imagine the sound of hand slapping forehead.)
