You've got a couple options,  @JoeBrown .... 1) fix the problem at the root - get your developers to remove the comma and use another character instead of comma (maybe dash?) 2) handle it with a Tealium "extension".  Remove/replace the comma within another Tealium extension using some hand-coded Javascript.   Let us know how it turns out, if you need more ideas, etc.  You always can ask your Account Manager to get you Tealium help too....   ...

If all you want to do is take the contents of your analytics object and push it into the UDO with each event, @JoeBrown, then you could achieve that with the following JavaScript extension, set to run before load rules (ideally as one of the first things you run): window.utag.ut.merge(b,your_analytics_object,0); This will copy all variables from your_analytics_object into the event payload, without overwriting any that are already set. So in this case, if your analytics object contains a "product_name" variable, that will be added into the event payload unless a variable with that name already exists (flip the third argument "0" to a "1" if you want to overwrite by default). Then you need only have a single instance of each variable in your UDO definition which should make mapping easier. This assumes that the variables in your analytics object already have the same names as the target UDO elements to which you want them mapped.. ... View more

Hi @JoeBrown In this case, I would recommend raising a support request and getting one of the support team to go through with you that specific page. Once a solution has been found, this thread can be updated with the solution. Either:  1) Use the Support Desk 2) support.tealiumiq.com 3) or email support@tealium.com Adrian ... View more

At the point of the click itself, @JoeBrown, the page may not know if validation has been passed. The most elegant solution would be to integrate directly with the form validation scripts and have those invoke your event upon successful validation. But obviously that's not always possible. The easiest way to do it would be to introduce a quick timer to delay the event until you've got confidence that the validation has run. The length of the delay would depend on whether the validation is performed live on the page, or as the result of an AJAX call, but it might look something like this: jQuery('.button').click(function(e) { fireIfValid( jQuery(this).data('info') ); }); function fireIfValid(payload){ setTimeout(function(){ if(jQuery(".inputErrorClass").length == 0){ utag.link(payload); } }, 10); } This assumes that the validation routine might, for example, highlight invalid fields by applying an "inputErrorClass" class to the field. Your exact solution will obviously vary, but the idea would be to be able to use jQuery to determine whether the page is in an error state or not after a suitable delay, and only transmit the data if it's not. ...
