You could use a jQuery listener instead?
jQuery("#formId").submit(){
_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Contact Form', 'Submit']);
}
or something along those lines anyway.
do i need to integrate a js-file for the listener? or can i use it just as you mentioned it above?

Depending your WordPress set up, you should have jQuery already installed. The only thing you’ll need to find is the ID in the <form> tag.
If you only have a class then you’ll need to modify the code to
jQuery(".class-name").submit(){
_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Contact Form', 'Submit']);
}
replacing class-name with the ACTUAL class, but keep in the dot.
Dear Martin, I will try it – thank you.
Dear Martin, my class’ name is:
wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-submit
Is it ok to have a blank in the
jQuery(“.wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-submit”).submit(){
_gaq.push([‘_trackEvent’, ‘Contact Form’, ‘Submit’]);
}

No, you can’t have spaces and because that’s a button you’ll need a slight change
jQuery(".wpcf7-form-control.wpcf7-submit").click(){
_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Contact Form', 'Submit']);
}
(when using multiple classes you replace the space with a full stop/dot).
Hi
I had the same problem. I was wondering where this jQuery listener should go?
Also I have 3 forms with different names all with the same class name ‘wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-submit’
So I take it I simply change it to:
jQuery(“.wpcf7-form-control.wpcf7-submit”).click(){
_gaq.push([‘_trackEvent’, ‘Contact Form 1‘, ‘Submit’]);
}
jQuery(“.wpcf7-form-control.wpcf7-submit”).click(){
_gaq.push([‘_trackEvent’, ‘Contact Form 2‘, ‘Submit’]);
}
Many thanks in advance!

Heya,
There’s no particularly ‘right’ place to put it – just after the submit button. So I usually put my listeners just before the </body> tag.
Of course you’ll need to wrap this in <script> </script> tags.
If it isn’t working have a look at the developer error console, that should give you any JavaScript errors you’re having.
Hope this helps,
Martin
