With a JavaScript, it is a little shaky on browser support. If you use tables, it sometimes makes a mess in NS3 if you use a document.write- which you would need for this script. Some other browsers won't support it at all- and with the need to use an external JS the only browsers that will probably see it are IE4+ and NS4+. The best way to do this would be through CGI and/or SSI.

The way to do it with JS involves using an external .js file. You can see how to use this at:

In this case, you would make the .js file look something like this:

-----------------------------
function newcontent()
{
document.write("Your new text in Here<BR>");
document.write("other new text, etc.");
}
------------------------------

Then, in your html file, be sure to point to the script in your HEAD section:

Then, call the script in the body section where you want the new text to show up:
