Actually, it is possible, but you have to fetch the JS file and parse it with PHP. There’s no difference if you include .txt or .js if you know what to do with it. It’s done here and it works : ).

Since Google Adsa are served via JavaScript, the method described is not possible.

Sweet. Nice article. :)

I’d been thinking about this just the other day.. but i lacked the regexp voodoo skills. So, thanks Marko. ;)

Have any of you guys tried this with Google AdSense? Do you know if it will mess with their rewards?

Exactly Marko! Indeed, I was not suggesting it was a problem, nor did I think for a moment that it had anything to do with competence, especially for your company.

Thanks again for the article.

@Ryan: Of course, doing such intervention should be approved by feed supplier.

@Terry: If the client is the one who has the final word (between the client and advertiser), then there’s usually no problem about that, since our clients mostly have a fair share of confidence in our competence.

Careful when doing this – usually it’s a violation of an advertisers terms – I myself have been denied advertising fees in the past because of modifying an advertiser’s markup.
