So it has to be implemented only in header (original tracking code) or html elements have to be changed as well? If they do, then how does it has to be done?

This only needs to be implemented where the existing tracking is implemented (either in the header or before the tag). No HTML elements have to be modified for virtual page tracking.

Thank you very much for the answer. Just one more question: is it possible to replace _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);with _gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/customURL']) instead of adding it? Because if both of them are there then count of pageviews in reports is doubled.

Yes, replacing the line is what is indicated by the diff in the example above (-: remove one line,+: add another line).
