}this script will emulate __utmz cookie behavior to track traffic source, campaign and medium (other data are not supported so far)
campaign aka utmccn is false by default, when a GET parameter utm_campaign is set, it will be stored and stick until another utm_campaign is found
medium aka utmcmd is false by default, when a GET parameter utm_medium is set, it will be stored and stick until another utm_campaign is found
Source aka utmcsr is a little bit more tricky: it is (direct) by default,when a GET parameter utm_source is set, it will be stored and stick until another utm_source is found

</script>If you want to parse the cookie in PHP, use any standard code you already use.
Here are some classic code to look at
- Google Analytics PHP cookie parse
- Code Example: Google Utmz Cookie Parser
- Campaign Tracking - Web Tracking (ga.js)
The cookie match the __utmz spec
in auto mode jquery-utmz will try to write on all sub domains
If website domain is client.inte.paris.ecedi.fr jquery-utmz will try to write (in this order) * .ecedi.fr * .paris.ecedi.fr * .inte.paris.ecedi.fr * .client.inte.paris.ecedi.fr
specify the cookie path
define the max age of the utmz cookie, 2 month by default (61 days)
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$().utmz({ expires: 7});
}
</script>define the cookie name, __utmze by default to not overlap with any old Google Analytics __utmz cookie
If you know what you are doing you can override to use the __utmz name
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$().utmz({ cookieName: '__utmz'});
}
</script>
