Do Google analytics track both https and http traffic?

Question

I have a few chrome plugins published on the Google webstore with analytics and I noticed today that the protocols for the URL different depending on what I happen to have copy pasted. Will Google analytics detect visitors to these pages on both http and https?

Answer 1

Short answer: yes.
Long answer: it depends on which version of the tracking code you are using. Meaning that if you are using an older version (urchin.js), you need to copy/paste a different tracking code into your secure pages. Here is the man page: http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py?answer=55483
