How to Javascript-write a graphic into a box

[Jonathan Allen]

Hi All,

Here's another question that has me foxed. I am (now) using <select> lists to
have users spell a Hebrew word. I'm using a javascript on_change() event
handler to catch and verify this. I want to have the javascript do a
document.write() to display the correct image file (of the appropriate letter)
next to the drop-down lists. How do I "goto" that point in the document and
trigger a redraw?

document.write cannot be used to change the page after the page is
finished.

Look at DOM usage, in particular createElement and its examples to
create a new element then insert it into the page.
