document.write issue

[bgnerr]

Im having an issue placing a document.write output in a specifc place (after my form), i want the document.write output to be produced from an if statement which is based on a variable within a function

the document.write output is to be placed outside the script thought :S into another div

CODE

if (count<5) {
document.write('unlucky')
}

any ideas?

[bgnerr]

any DOM method in particular?

it is the calculation output from a function which i wish to base my if statement on. e.g. whether or not to say well done or unlucky

[Philip M]

document.getElementById('divResults').innerHTML = "" // clear any previous message
if (count<5) {
document.getElementById('divResults').innerHTML = 'unlucky';  
}

[bgnerr]

still seems to be a problem any ideas as to where the document.getelementbyid should be placed? in a seperate function where i make the count variable global or within the orginal main function which determines the value of the count variable

[bgnerr]

var count=0;

main function

if (df.q1.value == answer[0])
{
say += "Correct\n";
count++;
}
else
{
say += "NOT Correct\n";
}

if statement to display message

document.getElementById('divResults').innerHTML = "" // clear any previous message
if (count<5)
{
document.getElementById('divResults').innerHTML = 'unlucky';
}
