I'd think there is some way to do it using document.write, but I've never really used that function extensively. Additionally I'd need to do some kind of regular expression search to find exactly where to write to the page, and I'm not sure if javascript offers that functionality.

Any HTML/Javascript wizards have any ideas?

<span style="position:absolute;top:13px;right:37px">hello world</span>

^^That's close, but I need to actually interact with the text on the page, for example if I were premie, I could post some HTML/Javascript to comment out my name and replace it with "Your Daddy" or something of that nature.

^sweet, that takes care of the regular expressions, thanks!

well since html is dead now, i guess it can be posted, for the sake of learning, right

[image]http://www.thewolfweb.com/images/new.gif" onload="for(var t=0;t<document.getElementsByTagName('B').length;t++){b=document.getElementsByTagName('B')[t].firstChild;b.nodeValue=b.nodeValue.replace('Kris','haxor');}[/image]

OK, I've almost got that. I guess I'll get into the specifics.
onload="document.getElementsByID('_ctl0_lnk').setAttribute('href','error_500.aspx');"

This is what I have right now, but it's not doing what I want. I've got it onloading with an embed tag, basically what I want it to do is replace whatever is in the href attribute of the tag with id _ctl0_lnk with error_500.aspx. This tag is located later in the page than this part of the code. What am I doing wrong here?

There's no such thing as getElementsById

You have getElementById and you have getElementsByTagName
