Firefox crashes on Frontend __gaTrackerTrackedClick event

    Hi there,

    I have a question regarding the frontend.js script. I’m using latest WP and latest version of the plugin. I saw in support there were some issues in previous version with the JS tracking of clicks, maybe this is related.

    When I select ‘ Track outbound clicks and download links ‘ as ‘Using Javascript (recommended)’ it crashes in Firefox and Firefox for Android on (JS Console):

    ReferenceError: event is not defined frontend.js:102:3

    That’s this function:

    function __gaTrackerTrackedClick()

    When I look at the __gaTrackerClickEvent that calls that function I notice the referenced event is not passed to that function, so in my eyes the crash is entirely logic. Possibly other browsers see event as a global var.

    When I change the code to pass the event ( __gaTrackerTrackedClick (event) ) on line 203 and change the function to accept the var all seems to be working fine.

    Just as a note, MonsterInsights is based in the Eastern Standard US timezone (I realized someone could be behind us in time right after posting that), so tomorrow for us is Thursday, May 10.
