[Javascript] Print the contents of a variable into the source

[Chris Nafziger]

I tried document.write(kbps) already even though I figured it wouldn't put
the number into the source.

It seems like you could do something like this with document.write(),
depending upon when the script executes.  Note that if you do this after the
page load completes, it will load a new page, and you will lose the original
page.
