Efficiently resolving the values for the tag parameters thereby syndicating the tag data as early as possible

摘要

A method, system and computer program product for resolving values of parameters of tags. A map is created which includes the number of times each parameter is referenced by the tags in a web page requested by a client device. The parameters in the map are then sorted in a list in descending order based on the number of times referenced by the tags. The value for the parameter listed at the top of the list is looked up. If the value cannot be located, then those tags that are associated with this parameter are added to a list of tags to be ignored. By ignoring such tags in this list, the resolving of tag values for tags to be syndicated can occur more quickly and efficiently, including syndicating the tag data before the web page is completely loaded.

主权项

1. A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium for resolving values of parameters of tags, the computer program product comprising the programming instructions for:
tracking a number of times each parameter is referenced by tags in a web page, wherein each of said tags comprises code that collects data, wherein each of said tags is associated with one or more parameters; building a map containing said tracked number of times each parameter is referenced by said tags; sorting said map by listing parameters in descending order in a list based on said number of times referenced by said tags; looking up a value of a first parameter listed at a top of said list; locating tags that are associated with said first parameter in response to not locating said value of said first parameter; and adding said tags that are associated with said first parameter in a list of tags to be ignored in response to not locating said value of said first parameter.
