    \b

    Please give me a proper use of switcher \b in command document.write.
    My goal is:
    1. write a number on a screen
    2. restore position of writing one character to the left (backspace)
    3. write some else number over first number with overwrite

    If I write:

    <body>
    <script language="JavaS cript">
    document.write( 1, "\b")
    document.write( 2)
    </script>
    </body>

    I get a rectangle (??) between 1 and 2 like a result in IE v6.0.

      There is no proper use of \b in document.write.

      Whatever you write via document.write( ) is interpretted as HTML.
      HTML does not have a backspace character.

      You can change the contents of a container:

      <html>
      <head>
      <script type="text/javascript">
      function count(){
      var myDiv=document. getElementById( "alpha");
      myDiv.innerHTML =parseInt(myDiv .innerHTML,10)+ 1;
      setTimeout("cou nt()",1000);
      }
      </script>
      <body onload="count() ">
      <div id="alpha">
      0
      </div>
      </body>
      </html>
