I'm having trouble figuring out how to tag some pages with google analytics - wondering if anyone has done this before.

I want to imbed some goog analytics javascript into my pages that help me track hits based on categories. I want to be able to generate a page, and put some analytics JS in there that I can then easily sum up and view via the analytics web console.

example: i have 2 categories, apples+pears. on the pages /pears/view/2333 and /pears/view/4444 I want to imbed JS that says this page has to do with "pears". On the pages /apples/view/5555 and /apples/view/6666 I want to imbed JS that says page has to do with "apples".

Then when I login I want to see a summary of all my categories, and the stats for each. Most importantly i want to be able to compare the number of hits vs another category. So in the grouping of "fruit" apples gets 60% pears get 40%. IS there a way to do this? i've seen bits and pieces in the AS doc but not exactly what i'm looking for.

I just set this up a few weeks ago for someone

setup your site in analytics
they will give you 1 tracking code
put that same tracking code on all of your pages (pears and apples)
then go to your analytics homepage
add new website profile (called pears)
Add a Profile for an existing domain
click Finish
then click Edit under settings for your new profile
under Filters Applied to Profile, click Add Filter
Add new Filter for Profile
filter name: pears
filer type: include only traffic to a subdirectory
subdirectory: ^/pears/


so to recap, your analytics code is the same for the whole domain. you then create a new website profile on the same domain and it uses a filter to only match certain subdirectories.
