title: Google Analytics download link tracking
body: <p>Is it necessary to URL escape the url in following js?</p>
  
  <pre><code>onclick="javascript: pageTracker._trackPageview('/internet/xyz/de/privatkunden.-Slot1-0113-File.File.FileRef.pdf/äü&amp;.pdf');" href="/internet/xyz/de/privatkunden.-Slot1-0113-File.File.FileRef.pdf/äü&amp;.pdf"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I JS-escaped it, before i write it on the page to make sure my JS will still work, but I'm not sure if URL escaping is required by google.</p>
  
  <p>I couldn't find anything in the docs and on this board that said yes or no.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
