How to get Client-Side events logged in Splunk?

We are mapping out the functionality of our website and have been successful with all the server side functionality. Now we would like to have the client side features logged in Splunk too. We've been throwing around some ideas such as adding a comment each time some javascript is fired, but not sure what route we should take. Has anyone done this before? Any and all ideas are welcomed!

You might want to look at the Splunk HTTP Event collector as a way to send data directly to a heavy forwarder or indexer.

I think we are going to stream the events from DynaTrace into Splunk so we can capture the client side logging, not an ideal solution but we need something

Unfortunately this wasn't exactly what we were looking for. Any other ideas?
