Every time I use the document.write(); function it does not work.

When I use the document.write(); function, nothing happens. I write the command, view to see what it did and it did nothing. What is wrong.

Hi Bradley,

Can you please share your code how you do it? Please see the documentation from W3Schools about the method: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_doc_write.asp Try the methods from over there. If you are trying to write HTML elements see also the following example:

Example Write HTML elements with text directly to the HTML document:

document.write("<h1>Hello World!</h1><p>Have a nice day!</p>");

Thank you, Adrian
