Writing HTML with JavaScript
JavaScript provides two simple methods to write to the HTML document:
Ø d o c u m e n t . w r i t e l n ( “ c o n t e n t ” ) – This will write a single line followed by a line
break.
– This will write text without spacing or line
Ø d o c u m e n t . w r i t e ( “ c o n t e n t ” )
breaks.

The following code produces a JavaScript Prompt box that asks for the user’s name and
then prints out an entire HTML document:

< h t m l >
< h e a d >
< t i t l e > A n o t h e r J a v a S c r i p t E x a m p l e < / t i t l e >
< / h e a d >

d o c u m e n t . w r i t e l n ( " < h 1 > W e l c o m e t o m y P a g e < / h 1 > " ) ;
