Problem when I try to open file and write into it

Could somebody explain why the following simple script doe开发者_Python百科sn't work in Firefox and how can I fix it?

<script type="text/javascript">
var w = window.open("a.php");
w.document.write("hello");
</script>

Thanks much


(edited to make the code sample display better)

DOM Scripting is more up to date and more robust.

e.g.

var w = window.open("a.php");
w.onload = function(){//you could also use dom ready rather than onload but that is a longer script that I've not included here
  var body = w.document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];
  body.appendChild(document.createTextNode("bar"));
}


I'm pretty sure you can't read/ write files using javascript because it's a client side language? I may be completely wrong though!

EDIT:

Try this code:

var new_window, new_window_content = [];
new_window_content.push('<html><head><title>New Window</title></head>');
new_window_content.push('<body>New Window</body>');
new_window_content.push('</html>');
new_window = window.open("", "", "status,height=200,width=200");
new_window.document.write(new_window_content.join(''));

Cheers, Sean


To the others posting answers here: he is not trying to open a file and write to it - it is impossible in javascript in a browser. What he is instead trying to do with the w.document.write is to write to the end of the web page he has just opened in a browser.

Google Chrome says this code fails as:

>>> var w = window.open("http://www.google.co.uk");
undefined
>>> w.document.write("lol");
TypeError: Cannot call method 'write' of undefined

You first need to open the document stream by using document.open() - this will add a write function in w.document:

<script type="text/javascript">
var w = window.open("a.php");
w.document.open();
w.document.write("hello");
w.document.close();
</script>
