    document.write() not working

    Can anyone discern why the following code writes the document.write( ) lines
    literally? That is, a line like document.write( '<CENTER>') should write
    <CENTER> but instead writes the entire document.write( '<CENTER>').

    I must be really doing something stupid. Can anyone here illuminate me?
    Thanks, Ike

      There is a missing ">" after ".class". I don't know if it really makes a
      difference, but I try to end all my lines with a semicolon [;].

      Just a note, check your spelling of "select-right". Some have two "c"s and
      another has only one "c".

      Try this:

      <script language="JavaS cript">
      var sQuery = location.search .substring(1);
      sQuery.toLowerC ase();

      if(!(sQuery=="j ake@earthlink.n et" || sQuery=="jake@s elecct-right.com"))
      {
      sQuery="info@se lecct-right.com";
      }
      sQuery=sQuery+" cc:info@select-right.com";
      alert (sQuery);

      document.write( '<CENTER>');
      document.write( '<APPLET CODE = "hline/hline.class">') ;
      document.write( '<PARAM NAME="RFQTo" VALUE="'+sQuery +'">');
      document.write( '</APPLET>');
      </script>

          None of these ideas affect why this isn't writing to the html. Thanks

              I don't see that happening when I copy and paste your code.
              Are you seeing

              document.write( '<CENTER>')

              in the rendered page, or just when you view source.
              If the latter, that's normal.
