Can anybody help me to spot the problem.
Im trying to call a function called TALISTING() in a document.write. All its doing is displaying the the function's name TALISTING()?

-----------------------------------------------------

document.write(&quot;<table width='468' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' height='30'><tr align='right' valign='top'><td height='30' width='251' bgcolor='#b5c0ca'>&quot;);
document.write(&quot;TALISTING()</td></tr></table>&quot;);
 
You have to tell tailsting to return the value you are looking for. e.g.

<script language=&quot;javascript&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;>
function makeText(){
mytext=&quot;hello&quot;
return mytext
}

document.write(makeText())
</script>

 
P.S.
Don't enclose the function's name in quotes. do this instead:

document.write(TALISTING() + &quot;</td></tr></table>&quot;);
