	Hello People,

	I assume this is easy, but I cannot figure it out. I have the
following javascript that return a variable with a value.

	<script language=javascript>
	var referer = window.opener.document.location.href;
	document.write(referer);
	</script>

	Quite simple, it gets the value and writes it to the browser.

	But I would like it written to a form element.

	<form>
	<input type="text" name="formurl" size="30">
	</form>

	What is the easiest way of getting that javascript variable into
that form element....????

	I have tried, but I cannot see it.

	Any help would be appreciated.

	Thanks,

	Alan...
