I'm trying to install clicktale and I've put the code for the footer before </body>, but I cannot find the <body> tag in the header.php file.

This is what the header.php code looks like:

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
<title><?php if (is_single() || is_page() || is_archive()) { wp_title('',true); echo(' • '); bloginfo('name'); } else { bloginfo('name'); echo(' • '); bloginfo('description'); } ?></title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/css/thickbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen,projection" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> RSS Feed" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />
<link rel="openid2.provider" href="https://myvidoop.com/openid" />
<link rel="openid.server"    href="https://myvidoop.com/openid" />
<link rel="openid2.local_id" href="http://griffin.myvidoop.com" />
<link rel="openid.delegate"  href="http://griffin.myvidoop.com" />
<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
<body class="<?php sandbox_body_class() ?>">
<div id="jacket">
	<div id="header">
		<ul class="nav">
			<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=-1&hierarchical=0'); ?>
		</ul>
		<span class="tagline"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></span>
		<p class="title"><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/">Blog Title</a></p>
	</div>

How do I go about installing this script without it? All I see is <body class=> but I have no idea how to manipulate that or what it does..

Thanks
 


Seriously, if you can't figure this one out, AM may not be for you.

The <body class=... is the body tag. If you're meant to place it in the body section, you'd want to put it right after this tag is closed off with the last > so it loads before the rest of the page.
I haven't installed clicktale before, but usually, you want to put javascripts in the head section of the page, not the body.

brb giving up on AM because I can't figure out one aspect of HTML.

but in all seriousness, thank you for the answer :)

edit: oh, and the installation instructions spit out two codes: one to place after the <body> tag and one to place before the </body> tag.
 
The header.php will have the <body> tag and usually footer.php contains </body>

Clicktale requires the code immediately after <body> and immediately before </body>. don't stick in the <head> or it won't work.
 
Yeah, I've installed clicktale before, but all my other templates simply had he <body> and </body> tags where you mentioned.

But this theme I'm using, in the header.php, it didn't have <body>, but rather, <body class=...> so I had no idea where to put the code.
