Syntax Help - ASP.NET & javascript

[Mike]

Hi. I have a unique problem. I have some HTML which displays correctly when
I input it into an aspx page or html page. But when I use javascript's
document.write() to write the html directly to the page, I get a script
error. The nature of the program requires me to use document.write() instead
of simply typing html directly.

The html is pretty simple - It's just a table. I've uploaded the page below
so you can see it...
www.masonsolutions.net/testing/page.html

As you can see, it looks fine here as regular HTML. But when I use
document.write() I get a script error saying "Syntax Error Expected ')'".

Could someone please let me know why this script error occurs when I use
document.write? This is an asp.net project, and I know someone here can
provide an answer, which is why I've posted here; please let me know if I
should post elsewhere.

Thanks!

Well, at the risk of stating the blindingly obvious, it occurs because
you've missed a closing bracket somewhere...

Do a View Source and inspect the generated JavaScript...

I've already done so, and there are no missing brackets.

If you're absolutely certain about that, I would suggest building up the
JavaScript a bit at a time until you find the line with the missing
bracket... It may not be where you think it is...

There is an HTML-->Javascript converter form on this article page:

Paste your HTML into the top textarea, press the button, get correct
Javascript in the bottom. View source on the page to get the code to make
your own.

I'm not infront of my development machine now, but this looks promising and I
wanted to say thank you for pointing me here. I can't wait to try it!
