I would like to track file downloads using the method described here:

http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=27242

This requires that the script calling urchin.js appear before the links to the downloads. Is there a way to use something besides hook_footer to get the script to be inserted just after the tag?

Have you tried this with the current way urchin.js is loaded?
What errors do you get?

onClick="javascript:urchinTracker ('/downloads/map');" is only going to call the urchinTracker() function when a link is clicked on, which is after the page & jscript has loaded, so i see no problem with the existing implementation...?

I think there is also a better patch to achieve this using unobtrusive JScript and Jquery to add the onclick attributes to Anchors upon page load.
