Writing text to a document in JavaScript

Using JavaScript, you can manage the HTML page tags, for example, display text in them. We will learn this later when we go through the section on working with the DOM.

Sometimes, however, for debugging purposes, you want to display some text in the browser window. This is done with the document.write command. Let's see how it works with examples.

Example

Output a numeric value:

document.write(123);

Example

Let's output some text:

document.write('text');

Example

Display text enclosed in tags:

document.write('<b>text</b>');

Example

Let's output the text contained in the variable:

let str = 'text'; document.write(str);

Example

Enclose the text from the variable in tags:

let str = 'text'; document.write('<b>' + str + '</b>');

Example

Display text in two rows:

document.write('text <br> text');

Example

Let's display a lot of texts in a column:

document.write('text1<br>'); document.write('text2<br>'); document.write('text3<br>');

Example

It's also possible like this:

document.write('text'); document.write('<br>'); document.write('text');

Practical tasks

Display some text in the browser window.

Display some text in the browser window, making it italic.

Given a variable:

let str = 'text';

Display the text from the variable in the browser window so that it is italic.

Display a column of numbers from 1 to 5 in the browser window.
