[thelist] Document.write Issue

Mon Apr 29 15:59:01 CDT 2002

Hi Josh,
I tried this situation in my PC and it worked well.
Put this line:

thelink = listoflinks[x].split('%e%q%')

in head section, instead of body section. By doing this, you will need
to put some "if else" situation in body section instead of "function
links()".
I hope this will work.

I am trying to write one of my cookies in the body of my document.  For
example:

TextTextTextTextText
TextTextTextTextText
TextTextTextTextText
TextTextTextTextText

Cookie

TextTextTextTextText
TextTextTextTextText
TextTextTextTextText
TextTextTextTextText

The code that searches for the existance of the cookie exists in the
<head>
of the page. If the cookie exists, the code in the <head> calls a
function
which I have placed in the body of the page:

function links() {
  document.write ("<b>Current Links</b><br>")
  for (x=0;x<listoflinks.length - 1;x++) {
   thelink = listoflinks[x].split('%e%q%')
   document.write("<a href='" + thelink[1] + "'>" + thelink[0] + "</a>
<br>")
  }
}

The problem is that when the function is called, it redraws the entire
page.
All I am left with is:

Cookie

So how do I Javascript it to simply write the cookie and leave the rest
of
the page intact?

Thanks,
Josh
