Javascript into html tags
If I've got a variable, say x, how can I get that into a html tag as a parameter?
Basically I want to get the position of the top corner of a layer to be determined in the <HEAD>, and then in the body, have <div id="1234" style="position:absolute; left:"x" px; top:"y" px>
If you see what I mean. Thanks again,
Marek

Try doing this...
Within the head section
function display(){
document.write("<div id="test" style='left:"+x+"; top:"+y+"; position:absolute>")
document.write("this is whats in the layer")
document.write("</div>")
}
I think that is what you mean...hope that helps...Maelstrom Personal - Apparition Visions

you are going to need to change the quotes around test ("test") to single quotes ('test'). Might cause some problems if you don't. and you will need a single quote after position:absolute (position:abosolute').Originally posted by Maelstrom

so i think this is what you will need.
Code:document.write("<div id='test' style='left:"+x+"; top:"+y+"; position:absolute'>") document.write("this is whats in the layer") document.write("</div>")Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice.

I've already worked it out. Sorry I didn't say so before. Basically I did what you guys said, but didn't think you could do it at first. That's why I didn't try it. I thought you would have to get the details on the clientside, and then change the html serverside, but it works any way.
Thanks anywaysCode:window.document.writeln('<div id="main" style="position:absolute; left:'+x+'px; top:'+y+'px; width:750px; height:440px; z-index:20">')
