document.write writes to a new page

[kjc2]

I am created a web page with a cms. It includes pansets but I don't think this should cause a problem..? I have a redirector based on IP and a simple if else statement. The else statement has a document.write, but when it is run it writes the text to a new web pages and doesnot display anything else.

if(internal == "Y") {
var redirect = new Redirect("http://intranet/awebpage");
redirect.go();
}
else
{
document.write('Hello');
}

This is the correct way to do a document.write isn't it?

I can't post all the code (cos its a lot) but is the document.write structed ok?

Cheers

The document.write seems OK. Try double quotes instead.

The document.write will always do this from a function after the page has loaded. If you want to change any text you will need to either use inputs, textareas or change the innerHTML or textNode of objects such as divs,p's,span's etc.
You can use document.write to write to the current page while loading or created a new page when loaded.

Yup, basically the short answer is: You cannot write to a page after it has been loaded. You should provide some more info on what you want to do, so we can help you with something specific
