document.write creates new document?

when using the 'document.write' command within an innerHTML command, it clears the screen and opens a new document. I cannot figure another way to get around this in IE?

does anyone have suggestions?

Yes, this has happened to me a lot too. If you have data that changes a couple times on a page and you have to print this data, examine this example:
<img src="img1.gif" onClick="valueOfData">
<form name="theForm">
<input type="Text" name="field1">
</form>, to where function valueOfData is:
function valueOfData() {
document.theForm.field1.value=window.event.x;
}

window.event.x would be your changing value, say you have an image, (please check http://www.sitesuwant.com/exampleXY.html to clear this up), and when you click on it, the x and y coordinates are printed in the fields. If you use document.write(); it will reprint on another page. That's my advice. So, use the text fields for changing data instead of document.write().
