Source Code

As an individual that utilizes Google's "Analytics" in my website, I have found that it functions as a decent tool for me to track where and who and how my website is being viewed. Unfortunately, as a designer I have run into a specific issue with someone else "designing" another person's website by taking my source code and not deleting my unique Google Urchin Tracker ID from their site, which then provides me with reports from that site. Now, I've created individual filters to omit that information and I've tracked the URL owner and contacted him about this issue, nothing has happened. So, to all you self-proclaimed web-designers, when you use other people's Source Code make sure you know HTML, CSS, Flash, XHTML, JAVA or whatever language you are using to construct with so you don't take information that isn't applicable to your site.
