I have a .net button which has an onClick event, defined in my C# codebehind to do some work (it sets variables and generates a PDF using itextsharp).

I want to implement a google analytics.js tracking event to this same button. How do I have a button that first fires off the javascript, and then the .net onClick?

  • Ok so that does provide a little more insight. Now I have <asp:Button ID="Button3" runat="server" Text="Create Printable PDF" OnClientClick="TrackPDFGeneration()" OnClick="Button3_Click" UseSubmitBehavior="False" /> and in my script I have: function TrackPDFGeneration(){ ga('send', 'event', { eventCategory: 'ReferralGenerated', eventAction: 'click', eventLabel: 'Create Referral PDF', transport: 'beacon' }); } Am I doing this correctly? The event is not showing up in my Google Analytics. Commented Jun 21, 2016 at 18:06
  • Oh... that worked. It just took a moment to show up. Thank you! Commented Jun 21, 2016 at 18:21
