Document.write - different results if called from function

[apple01]

Using JavaScript, if I code a document.write() directly in a script coded in the body of my document, the output appears on the same page. However, if I code a document.write() in a function that is called, the output appears on a new page. Why is this?

Thanks,

In a function, I don't know how you direct document.write() to write to a particular place in a document. Probably better to use other methods.
