The form is actually a single page, we just format it to appear as if it is multiple pages. No, it would not track pages separately, as the “pages” in a multi-page form are just an illusion.

But yes, it should work if you embed. Josh, if you are embedding the form, you can place the tracking code on the page you are embedding the form on.

That would be a URL on your website that you use as a confirmation page. Users would be taken there after they pay with PayPal. Place your tracking code on that page.

However, with a formspring that’s integrated with paypal, we have no control over the confirmation page (or that’s what I was told).

Any way around this?

It doesn't recognize the url of my form, so doesn't know where to look... Am I doing this right? What Formspring url should I be directing it to track?
