Having registered this blog to Google Analytics, I pasted this code to bottom of template,

<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
_uacct = "UA-562528-12";
urchinTracker();
</script>

Actually, I do not like to let JavaScript code open to HTML document, so I remarked them to modified version,

<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<--
_uacct = "UA-562528-12";
urchinTracker();
//-->
</script>

Saved and loaded...

I read source and found that the remarked lines were all thrown, so it became,

<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
</script>

Surprised enough. Is this one reason Analytics provides as-is, without JavaScript remarked? Modified again as its origin, all was then correct.

So, do not add extra HTML comment to your template(s). Blogger will cleverly remove them.

Hey, this blue denim template rocks! Stretch Denim Light.

The light blue at the top is nice-cool and still using elements minimally. Its right sidebar is also balance enough to main entry on the left side.
