When using the document.write script there are some charachters which are read as JavaScritp when they should be read as html, these include "/". to prevent it being read as JavaScript you have to use the "\" character, this escapes JavaScript for the character which follows it.

So you want something like this

Code Sample:
document.write("<a href=http:\/\/www.someplace.com>Click Me<\/a>");

This should work.

Yes, i did this before and it worked, but i can't figure out how to create a link in the document.write. i tried it this way:
document.write("<a href="http://www.anything.
com>click here!</a>");
but it didn't work... Any sugestions?

JavaScript can only read from a .js file and from a cookie, but not a plain text file. You might be able to set a bunch of string variables to hold the contents of the layer (tags, etc.) and then use document.write() on the page to call them.

I haven't tried it out yet though.
