_trackEvent() from Google Analytics not working?

Question

I have Google Analytics setup on my site, and it is definitely recording page views. But I have added some code to call pageTracker._trackEvent(category, action, labe

Answer 1

it is not recording those hits or showing them in the reports.

Events have no effect on page views and do not appear on regular reports. Events have a seperate interface at Content / Events. If you'd like to track the things you specified as events like regular hits, better use the trackPageview method instead.
