When I asked:

Tom and Joshua helped me by saying....
> ><input type="text" value="
> > <script>
> > url["foo"]
> > </script>
> > " />
and
> <input type="text" value="
> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
> document.write(url["foo"]);
> </script>
> " />
I tried both those examples and found that the text box terminates at
the end of of the <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
I also tried encapsulating the entire form with <script
language="JavaScript"></javascript> but then the entire form dissappeared.
