Analytics plugin break OMA download descriptor .dd file

Some mobile handsets support the OMA download standard that sends a download descriptor file with a .dd extension to the mobile handset. The mobile handset then reads this file and makes a connection to collect the content specified in the file. Once the content is download to the handset the handset again looks at the file for any call back url to call and confirm that the content has been download fully.

My problem is that the Analytics plugin is appending its javascript to the .dd file sent to the handset. This file has a very strict standard and although some handsets ignore anything that comes after what the expect by the standard most will break.

So it would be nice if the GA plugin only appended the JS to recognized file extensions eg. .htm, .html, .php etc OR even better would be to add the functionality to have an exclusion list, maybe allow regexes, this could excluded all matching file extensions or even file that have copy that matches anything in the exclusion list etc?

Thanks, I didn't know about that .dd extension - I will add it to the exclusion list in the next release.

Great, thanks.

Would it be possible to allow the users to add file names(and maybe even regexs) to an exclusion list through the interface and m? E.g. exclude: admin.php, exco.htm, / ^admin_/ This will not add the JS to admin.php, exco.htm, admin_one.php, admin_two.htm and admin_3.asp OR Could it at least pick up these lists from inside a flat file or the vhost Directory block?

Thanks for the great plugin

Cheers

That's not a bad idea .. I will add it to my TODO list.
