New Google Analytics code looks like one below:

<script type=text/javascript>



 var _gaq = _gaq || [];

 _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-0000000-00']);

 _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);



 (function() {

  var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;

  ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';

  var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);

 })();



</script>

How to move the whole new Google Analytics Asynchronous Tracking Code into an external JavaScript file?

I'm asking especially about var _gaq = _gaq || []; [...] part because I know it's possible to move the rest e.g.

index.html

<script type=text/javascript>



 var _gaq = _gaq || [];

 _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-0000000-00']);

 _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);



</script>

<script src=include.js type=text/javascript></script>

include.js

function includeGA()

{

 var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;

 ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';

 var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);

}



$(document).ready(function()

{

 includeGA();

});

I've already tried to place the var _gaq = _gaq || []; [...] code into various locations but nothing worked.
