How come you're using document.open() and close()? I thought open() was to
open a popup window. Also, it seems a bit strange to be calling code that
writes to the document in an onload thing - you could try having a DIV or
something and writing to that using innerHTML
(http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:element.innerHTML)
