     I have a number of pages that do have document.write() calls in
them, and they work fine.  The pages are presumably loaded at the time
the document.write() calls are made as some of those are in the body.
In one page, the body consists only of JavaScript code: a variable
creation and four document.write() calls using the variable and a
method defined in the head.

     Could you please clarify your response?

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
